Safety problem

2022 Encore GX. The chrome around the infotainment center is bright and shiny and on a slant. When the sun is shining the glare shines in your eyes (like a flash build) and makes black holes in you vision. Very dangerous. Buick suggested I adjust my seat to keep that from happening. I’m 5’4” and my son is 6’. Same problem. They also tell me it is within specs but I can take it to an after market place and maybe they can fix it but if the chrome is removed it will void the warranty. I will be filling a complaint with National safety board. Grr! brand new car and it’s not safe.

Thick front pillar and mirror is major blind spot

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

I am short and have my driver's seat forward. I was making a left turn out of a gas station and almost hit a car going in the same lane I was turning into. The thick pillar with the mirror on the front passenger side causes a dangerous and solid blind spot of about two feet.

FANTASTIC SUBCOMPACT SUV WITH SOME FLAIR

Rod, 04/21/2024
2023 Buick Encore GX Preferred 4dr SUV AWD (1.3L 3cyl Turbo 9A)
3 of 5 people found this review helpful

At first I was hesitant to buy the Buick Encore GX because of the size of the engine, a 1.3L 3-cylinder engine. Boy was I surprised at how well it gets up and goes. Ride is great. A semi-firm suspension that rides well on rougher roads. Love the AWD and 9-speed transmission. Interior is fantastic, very upscale from a Chevy, but not quite as nice as a Cadillac. Just a couple of items that Buick could have done better on. Radio is of poor quality for a semi-luxury brand. The standard halogen lamps are out of date, but yet Buick still insists on using them. Added a much-needed amp, speakers, and sub. Halogen headlamps changed to LEDs. Finished up the touches that Buick couldn't figure out. I fully intend on keeping this SUV for many years to come.
