Stop/Start technology .... SO ANNOYING !!!!!
brenda mitchell, Dayton, OH, 09/22/2017
2016 Buick Encore Premium 4dr SUV AWD (1.4L 4cyl Turbo 6A)
The stop/start technology is not "smart", if this auto is a somewhat a "smart" car then it should know the difference between being stuck in traffic and pulling into my garage ! I actually dislike the stop/start feature because the car shutters each time it restarts. Overall driving experience is poor because most of my driving is around congested city streets with alot of lights. … Anyone thinking of this auto should consider another model with the ability to disable the start/stop when in traffic. I get the economy of the feature and do not mind if that happens on open highway when in bumper to bumper traffic slowdown for considerable period of time. In the short pit stop type driving that I do I find it very annoying. I would not purchase this car again solely because of this feature.
Act one and two....

You will be surprised by spaciouness in side. My 6' husband slides in with ease. Comfortable traveling for passenger and driver. I've had back surgery and like sliding into a chair when i get into car. My 2nd encore and wasn' t unhappy with the first. Only had such amazing deals for end of year 2016, that i traded up from a 2014 to a new premier 2016. I love this car. I call it my "whip … about". Most of the time my seats down cause I am an antiquer and hauler of most anything. Just enough luxury mixed with simplicity with fun. I can't say anything bad. I've had many cars and this is my all time fave! So this ain' t the encore, but the 2nd act. I am sure will be a fan and purchasing for a lonoooong time.

Make sure your iphone is used for a period of time within the initial 30 day period - This vehicle works great with Androids but that's it! The navigation was sending me into the wrong directions verbally but the on screen view was correct.

I love this car. It is small but roomy. Even my 6'4" husband is comfortable in it. It's definitely not a race car, but it's a safe and stylish vehicle
