Turbo beware
I really love this suv until my turbo went out with 50,000 miles on it. I take such good care of this vehicle but that has nothing to do with this issue this is something we have no control over this. is a GM issue. Took a month to get parts total abotr 5 weeks to get part and fix. I have researched this problem it is a common problem in this vehicle. The encore looks good drives great but not any good if you have to pay out of pocket to fix a turbo problem that is an expensive fix. I was blessed mine was still under warranty just bearly. I feel like if this happens again GM is gonna have a class action lawsuit on there hands.

Great little SUV but has issues
Purchased this vehicle with 25000 miles. It is a great suv, small yes but spunky.It has great acceleration and has a great ride. Vehicle responds to driver commands and is simple to understand the electronics in it. I sold my Honda SUV for this and couldn't be happier. It also gets great gas mileage. Buick and GM have built this right. You owe it to yourself to check it out if you are in the market for a small SUV. Update: This vehicle has performed perfectly. It has great pickup and is a pleasure to drive I have had no issues with this vehicle at all. This vehicle has checked all the boxes for me. If you are on the fence about this vehicle go ahead and get it. You will not be disappointed. At 33000 miles the turbo failed. It's under the powertrain warranty now and hopeful will be replaced without a major cost to me. Honestly this is a big problem with me. A vehicle only 4 years old with low miles and serviced regularly should not have this issue. Once the vehicle has been repaired sadly I will trade in this vehicle. I cannot afford for this to happen again. Even though I have purchased an extended warranty with this vehicle I do not trust it. Because of the several issues with turbos on this vehicles engine I cannot recommend this vehicle. Stay away from any vehicle with this engine.
