Used Buick Rendezvous for Sale

I have owned my Buick Rendezvous for almost ten years now, and it has been a dependable, quality family car since I drove it off the lot. I like that I have never had any mechanical issues besides routine maintenance like replacing the battery or changing the oil. I know for certain this car will safely and dependably carry my family wherever we need to go. While it may not be flashy or hip or stylish, the peace of mind I have driving this car is worth it.

The Buick Rendezvous is a crossover vehicle--not fully SUV, but not fully family sedan either. With all-wheel drive and rear cargo space, this vehicle The design and styling of the car is not as glamorous as a sporty SUV and reads along the same lines as the Pontiac Aztec--boxy and a little ugly. Looks, one of the best features is the vehicle's all-wheel drive capability. More common these days, all-wheel drive is a must for snowy climates, dirt road drives and for people who want to feel secure in their car. Rendezvous does this well and one truly does feel safe inside. One downside of all-wheel drive is that you need to maintain an even wear on all tires. These tires should be replaced as a set, but are super expensive. Another plus of the Rendezvous is it's space. The seats have ample leg room and you don't feel the sedan-squish. You can store a decent amount of cargo in the back and if you aren't carrying too many passengers, take out the middle seats and you are ready to go. The windows are large and allow for maximum visibility. Driving is once again probably safer in this vehicle. However, your gas mileage might not be as great as you want--you'll probably pay as much as any other SUV out there and be getting 24 MPG max on highway conditions. Now, the vehicle does what it was sold for--carries cargo, is safe, can go off road a bit, but the major downside is the manufacturing defects. In Consumer Reports you'll find consistent problems such as window attachments breaking. While that may not be a big concern, the transmission and other major engine components could be. These vehicles were not built to last and reports indicate that consumers have had many problems with major engine parts. This would scare away your smarter customers.

I love the vehicle because it can travel through small floods with ease, the car is comfortable, and relaxing to sit in, good seats for people who have back issues, and drives very smooth. Over the 3 years that I've had it, I've only had brake issues one time but was able to get that fixed with ease, the car is very easy to maintain and does not cost a lot of money to do so. The only issue that I have had with it is that the lighter area/phone charger does not work but that is fine because I do not need to use a cell phone while driving anyways, this vehicle is great to use for travel, as well as shopping, has great space for groceries and/or other items bought from a store, can hold a bicycle in the back trunk space area as well as other objects of similar size.
