We have a used 2015 Buick Encore with 31,000 miles that has been in the garage 7 times in the last 4 months. It would hesitate and almost stop so had knock sensor replaced. Within two weeks doing same thing so replaced again. 2 more weeks and out again so replace third time. Two weeks later starts again and replace turbo charger this time. Three weeks and again so rebuild engine with piston and all 4 valve gaskets. 2 days and check engine light on again and now say catalytic converter needs replaced. WHAT THE HELL!!!

I have had 7 trouble free years with this vehicle. We are empty nesters and it's the perfect size for us. Great fuel economy around town, easy to park and very comfortable. This car does not get enough credit and is overlooked by the public and it's priced right.

I purchased my Encore 10/7/2018 from my bf directly from his lease. Needless to say I got a great deal! GM had even been out to inspect for return to the dealer and everything passed. Just under 29,000 miles on it so I know I will be driving it for a long time. MPG is great, hwy is 28 MPG and in town is 23. The interior is very rich looking and comfortable. Heated seats and steering wheel. Rain sensor wipers, front and back. All the collision alerts, lane departure and side mirror blind spot lights make me feel very attuned to traffic around me. Bose system is fantastic. The GPS could be a little more user friendly, such as the app on my phone is. I have reported to the dealership that the information/entertainment screen has actually shut down completely at least once. I did have my phone charging through the usb port but my phone is dying (shuts down) and with it connected as USB device, they thought that might be the issue. When the light sensor cuts the dashboard lights during the daytime it is a significant drop in visibility but I can still see it. I went from a 2011 KIA Sorento which was a little tall to get into even with the running boards I added, so the Encore is a better fit for me. The only real issue I have is the reduced cargo space in comparison to the Sorento. But it balances out because the Encore is so easy to drive and park. It handles like a little sports car!! I love my Encore!

Purchased a used 2015 Buick Encore Leather with 48,000 miles April 2021. I like everything about it. Yes it’s compact but has roomy front seats. My 6’4” husband has plenty of leg & head room. Back seat leg room is tight but not overly important as I rarely have back seat passengers. I find the acceleration decent. It maneuvers quite well and is a smooth and quite ride. I did have to spend $700 a few months after purchase and under 2000 miles driven. Car started misfiring in a big way. Spark plugs were fouled, transmission fluid, needed changing, and another part replaced. It’s been running like a top since then. Overall I’m very pleased.
