The turbo 1.3 power is surprising. Feature rich interior. Looks great and feels good on the road.

Good overall car. Bought our Buick Encore GX in April, 2022. It has recently started making a vibration type noise which appears to be coming from the dash area. Has anyone else had this problem?

Great little SUV

This is a great little SUV. We were looking for a vehicle that could be serviced locally for us so we traded in our vehicle which was a Subaru Outback. We do lots of research on vehicles before purchasing including checking out IIHS safety ratings and the NHTSA, Motorweek, Car & Driver and of course, Edmunds. We were pleased with most of what we saw about the 2023 Encore and made our purchase. We’ve owned the car almost a month and so far, we are pleased. The Essence model we bought is very well appointed with leather seats, sunroof and power lift gate. The cabin is quiet and we have had no issues with acceleration. This vehicle even seems to have better acceleration - even on the highway - than our Outback did. The seats could be a bit more cushioned which would probably make them more comfortable but they also aren’t the worst we’ve ever sat on. The A/C was quick to cool the car down and we hope the heat works equally as well this winter. A couple of things I think could have been designed better - the placement of the steering wheel controls and the Driver’s Information Center. It could just be operator error with my navigating the Driver Information Center but I don’t find it as user-friendly as it probably could be. The steering wheel audio controls, although not horrible, could have probably been better. We are pretty well pleased with our little Buick and are not regretting our purchase thus far.

Unreliable garbage car

2022 Buick Encore GX Preferred 4dr SUV AWD (1.3L 3cyl Turbo 9A)

This is, by far and away, the worst automobile I’ve ever owned in my life. It has broken down 3x in 7,800 miles. The electronics go out on a whim and the dealer pulled a 20-page diagnostic report of malfunctions. Avoid buying one of these AT ALL COSTS.
