I tragic mistake

2016 Buick Cascada Premium 2dr Convertible (1.6L 4cyl Turbo 6A)
7 of 10 people found this review helpful

Electronic systems in the vehicle are poorly engineered or extremely outdated, case in point, with the navigation system when requesting an address in South Carolina I was given an address in California, the telephone system, when making a phone your voice is delivered and a very raspy matter. The system was so bad that after three months I traded the car back in

Disappointing vehicle

2016 Buick Cascada Premium 2dr Convertible (1.6L 4cyl Turbo 6A)
4 of 5 people found this review helpful

1. Ride is stiff and bumpy, it's a convertible. 2. Top stuck in open position on a cloudy day, rain coming (spring needed to be oiled). 3. Wipers need to be GM authorized wipers, after market wipers do not work, left wipers stuck in the up position (not clearly stated in the owner's manual). 4. Navigation seriously fails and the dealer is unable to fix it, keeps downloading software. Sometimes directs to turn on roads that do not exist and FREQUENTLY directs to "prepare to turn left" on double and triple lane highways and suddenly says turn right in 100 feet. Does not consistently follow the same route to a location, i.e. driving home from my office route varies after the last software download. Fails to accept addresses accepted prior to last software download.

My top has come loose! 3 weeks in shop, no answers of why this happened and still trying to fix it! I thought Buick raved about this new evolutionary top! So what are your explanation for it coming off the tracks! There also spots in the paint that look like water spots that do not come off! Very disappointed! Wished I had never traded my Cadilac in for this Casscada! And yes , it a year old with 5,000 miles!

Beauty of a car for that middleclass person

At least a beauty of a car for a middle-class hardworking person that wants a comfortable and can't afford a Mercedes or other high end vehicle. I am in love with my car. The look, the ride, the comfort, the pick up, everything. The only thing is being it in the 2016 and it being almost winter I was hoping I would get a better price but afraid not. I am still paying over 450 a month on a lease after putting over 3000 down for 36 months and I think that crazy, but it's what I wanted to drive so I did it. I hope to maybe buy it out, we'll see. Anyhow. compared to the BMW bug it was roomier, a more luxury car and BMW payments would have been the same, so I went with the Buick and got the car I really wanted and the Cascada is a real gem.

incomprehensible rear end

Dennis Gates, 03/20/2016
2016 Buick Cascada 1SV 2dr Convertible (1.6L 4cyl Turbo 6A)

For some unknown reason, the car has double rear lights. Two sets. Beautiful outside lights. Then open the trunk, and there is a second set of rear lights with blinkers, and all. This takes up a large part of the trunk space (already naturally limited by the fold down top). I could not fit a set of golf clubs nor a suitcase because of these double lights. WHY???? No one knew. Then one salespersons said "well if you are stopped on a dark highway, with trunk open to change a tire, they are a safety" hmmmmm. How many times in my 40 year driving career have I stopped for that? None. Not valid. j I am looking to try and remove the inner rear lights. Just a tremendous waste of trunk space. And cost to build and what a cost to repair!!! Dennis Gates
