This is by far the worst investment I have ever made. It is one thing after another with this car. Once you fix one problem another arises. To start with it was a speed sensor(wheel bearing) then is was the oil sensor. Then it got to the point where EVERY TIME I fuel up the car would not want to start again. I would literally have to wait 2-3 minutes and still press the gas before it would start again (how embarrassing) very inconvenient. And to top it off last night the battery light came on. I know what you r thinking "simple fix" turns out no. I will have to put it I The garage to find out if it is a problem with the computer, transmission, or the engine. I have had it with this car. I will NEVER PURCHASE ANOTHER BUICK EVER!!! All of these problems I am having seem to be common problems if you check other reviews; however, there have been no recalls or even attempt to fix these problems. I am done with this vehicle. I also now have a light that says reduced engine power and it will not go more than 30mph.

Super stable, rides on rails. Wife just rolled it upside down into a pine tree after hydroplaing in snow melt. Though totaled out, frame absorbed entire impact and vehicle crumpled in right places to absorbe roll-over. We have a duplicate on hold pending insurance payout. Like previous comments, it may start out as wife's car, but it will grow on you.

I bought a 2006 a few months ago with approximately 138000 miles on it. I loved the look of the SUV and the visibility was great Unfortunately for me I bought a lemon. The first thing was the rack and pinion $250, then steering column $500, then EVAP system $400 now the throttle body and temperature hoses $475. Also the transmission gasket is leaking don't have a price for that yet. The SUV is taking up a lot of anti-freeze which I am told may require a intake valve manifold seal replacement no price for that either. Had to put 4 new tires $300, brakes $135 and ailment $75 which I expect as maintenance. The repairs have cost more than the total price of the car which was $1350. The retail price for the car currently in good condition to sell will only be $2100 If i can sell it for that. I will be out the amount I paid for the car.

We traded in our like new Surburban for this vehicle and took it on a 1 week 3,000 mile trip. I can't believe how comfortable and easy to drive it is. I am 6'4" and weigh 275 lbs and have plenty of room. My wife is disabled (couldn't get into the Surburban) and finds it easy to get into and out of. We love it and would recommend it to anyone.

Thi is our first Buick. It is a lot roomier and better riding than we expected. It is quiet and gets very good gas mileage for an SUV.
