Great but with flaws
Overall, I really like my 2013 Verano Leather Group. However, it's not all roses. My main objective was to find a quiet, comfortable car with decent mpg. The Verano does this well. However, I have issues that really detract from my driving enjoyment. They are: very harsh downshifts from the automatic transmission. The Bluetooth randomly changes from English to French and loses my Contacts list. The XM radio changes channels by itself. I turn off the car with the station tuned to one channel, only to find it tuned to the Preview channel #1 upon restarting the car. According to the dealer, no trouble found. I won't return to GM after my 2 year lease is up.

Luxury at a great value
I just have my Verano for about a month now and I'm very impressed. My ruby red color attracts a lot of attention, and shows off the cars great lines. Great finishes in the interior as well looks like a more expensive car. Very comfortable seats for 4 and big trunk. Car loaded with features. More than enough acceleration. Very happy with my selection!

This was my moms car. I noticed prior to her death that the clear coat was coming off. Unfortunately at the time had to many other things to worry about. Her warranty ran out July 2017. I was unaware of when the warranty ran out. My mother had already passed away. I have contacted Buick and they scheduled for me to go to a Buick dealership to get an estimate. Was told at the dealership that I was not the only one who had brought their vehicle in with this problem. Unfortunately, they told me that it would not be covered and the cost would be $1500-2000. I have never owned a vehicle that the paint did like this. Overall pleased with the Buick but would never purchase due to the way this was handled

Chugs along, guzzles gas; a mediocrity
We have now been driving the Verano for three years and my first impressions turned out to be lasting. This is a heavy vehicle with a so-so engine that drinks gas, especially in winter. It still sounds like a lawnmower, and the view out of the back is poor. It's a two-wheel drive car which guarantees poor performance in winter, which is a shame, because we get five months of snow a year. One January day last year three separate sets of neighbors had to push the car down our street after my wife got stuck; an hour later, I navigated the same stretch without problems in my four-wheel drive BMW 328. On the positive side, the cabin heats up very quickly in the cold. My daughter and wife both love the Verano on the grounds that its bulk means they feel safe.
