Mother in-laws Car My Foot!
Do research about the dealership and cost along with push back a pushy salesman. The once upon a time in disclosing that the car "used to belong" is just about the best way to turn around and leave any dealership. I have owned my car for 11 month and in the beginning it was just want I wanted. although the price in paying off the mother in laws issues is not worth it, I felt I could afford the thing which has turned in the creature from the black lagoon. I have had it towed to two different Buick dealerships 6 times and i just waiting for the 7th the pop up any day now. The service departments have replaced the batteries 4 times and one was a call back and I don't even remember what the other issue was. None-the-less the surgical attempts failed and I am stuck with the grayest lemon in the city of Massillon, Ohio. I have reviewed several other reviews from individuals who shared having the same problem and the results were the same unresolved by Mr. GM and the dealership. At one point, there was contact with the dealership that was made but being told to take it somewhere that services Buick was fine, but no offers of support were ever issued. You know you have a semi-lemon (semi because it will work on occasion) When a opening statement of regret starts as "Well." Alright you have been had kiddo, lights out, party's' over, pig's on the griddle and you have been cooked. Why is there not a legitimate complaint division for cars? and true justice for a lemon. Yes I do I understand the lemon law but who's to listen. Such unrequited trust in what we count as justice, until those who we count on to deliver justice is wearing our size 9.5's. If I don't express my feeling I would probably break and drive it right down GM's you know what.

Favorite Car
Absolutely Love this Car. Addictive to drive. Blows away the whole field of SUVs
Junk!!!!
My Buick encore only had 81,000 miles on it and the transmission went out July 2023 and now we are in this December 2023 and I am told now I need a manifold as they are common problems for cracking. I thought it was a squeal from a pulley or loose belt, but then told it was a crack, making the noise. Also, I was told the valve cover would need to be replaced. Another thousand dollars after already putting a transmission in. I've had better luck with old beaters with over 200,000 miles on them. I think I'll stick with the old cars. New vehicles with under 100,000 miles on them should be purring like a kitten. I will never buy another Buick no matter what year it is.

good review
For a small SUV it handles very well and gets good gas mileage 30+ for an AWD. Ride is comfortable, handles 4 grownups in comfort.
