Car shakes every time you take off, back up camera is totally worthless, exhaust rattles, shut the moon roof and it will reopen by itself staying closed after three are four times, speedometer does not come up all the time, you don’t know what speed you are doing and you can’t always get the car to shut off even when there is no key in the car. After many times to the dealer they finally admitted that the car had problems but they had no fix and to just drive the car until it broke. Very, Very poor car

Update: winter driving was a breeze with Twin Clutch Awd on the stock tires. The remote start from remote or OnStar app worked like a charm as the car is running when I walk up to it and can take off as soon as I enter. The heated steering is our favorite feature and very hot. Seats could be hotter but I only have a 8 mile drive to work. Next up springtime driving to see some new record fuel economy numbers now that she is well broken in at 15,000 miles. Update: We are seeing 32 mpg @65 mph for hours on end. Fully loaded the fuel economy drops to a respectable 30 mpg at the same speed. Very impressive in this segment to see a 2.0T 4,000 lbs SUV with AWD get into the 30's. My wife finally got to drive it out of town for business. She doesn't like all the electrical nanny's but boy does it move on the highway. Next up...wintertime driving. 9,000 miles now. Coming from a 2013 and 2014 Cadillac, both of which I still have, the Buick is refreshingly solid and comforting in both riding and driving. We got a used 2016 Premium ll with roof and Driver Confidence. Plenty of head room with the sun roof in all seating positions. The Adaptive Cruise Control along with the self parking feature and lane assist are really neat features. The parking is neat show off feature that this car is very easy to park and see out of. The lane assist will have you bouncing off each side of the lane for miles, which is a little scary at first. The ride quality is refined compared to the stiffer, performance oriented Cadillac. The handling does not take a back seat to the softer suspension that this tracks and takes input better than a rental 2017 Escape we drove 6 hours to pick up the Buick.

Update 2: we traded the Envision in on a 2018 Regal TourX. We like the car-like handling Bose sound system part of the Sights & Sounds package. And the TourX wagon has the looks that turns heads. We got $2,500 more than we owed(who says GM's Buick doesn't hold value?!) And $9,000 off on the TourX. Update: My best mileage is 32 mpg at 65 mph with just me or 30 mpg loaded at thr same speed. 12,000 miles and the oil life is saying it is time for an oil change. I love the freebies when it is 20°F out otherwise I be in thr unheated garage doing it myself. I love the heated steering wheel as it get very warm. The heated seats are appreciated by all four of us and thr heated mirrors work great too. The AWD is perfect on the white stuff and seldom slips unless you want to punch the throttle. With 3,000 miles on our 2016 Envision Prem ll, we picked up used in the mid-$30's, the moonroof and Driver Confidence Package are quite the deal compared to the more expensive German car companies. My in-laws are quite smitten with the Envision overall and are considering one for their next purchase. I searched new/used 2.0l turbo for months as it has AWD and torque vectoring included. The 2017 Prem ll discounted was capped my lower models starting at $35K. So our 2016 Prem ll GM executive driven with 3,000 miles in the next state over was lightly driven with no excessive tire wear, so I know it was not used for closed course driving events. New 2016 with no options were popping up for $10K off or $33K but I did not want white or silver, so it pays to shop with discounts like that and spend a few hundred to have it shipped. Currently getting 25 mpg on my half city/highway commute now that it is warming up. The ride is super quiet and smooth I'm surprised how well it isolates from the road, it is refreshing after a day at work.
