2004 Buick Rendezvous review from North America
"Don't purchase it"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Until now, minor problems such as rear hatch not opening fully (replaced gas shocks and guides).
Now, since the warranty is over (60K), complete brakes front and rear, pads and rotors, rear hatch now does not open unless opened using the remote, sunroof motor cuts in and out, not fully opening or closing in 1 try holding the button.
Today front hub bearing went, another $600. Called GM complaint line, and although some vehicles of this model year are under a bearing replacement program, apparently our vehicle is not included. No wonder the "big 3" are in trouble. I won't be getting another GM product. 70000 kilometers and worn out!!!
