The engine literally blew up, was misfiring, white smoke coming out of hood and exhaust, what drama! Had it towed to the dealership, said the gasket cracked, oil leaked down into the engine, something else, cheaper to replace engine, 6K. this car is gorgeous to look at, but unless you know about engines, it's a crock. And of course, the warranty had just run out. It's a lemon.
I hope this owner realizes that many other people haven't had any significant problems with 2002 Rendezvous. We have 63,000 almost completely trouble free miles on one. I am angry at Buick for planning to replace this wonderful vehicle with another model.
Be aware that your experience is very, very unusual. Buick in general produces high quality, dependable automobiles.

Funny, virtually every review on this site about the Rendezvous is negative. Guess ALL those people are wrong, eh?
