![]() ![]() Last scheduled service BUICK said they updated my software and seems to have made a difference" Fixes itself after I shut car off and restart. Buick dealer first said it was an APPLE problem! Lol! It's only happened a handful of times. (2015 Buick Encore None 1.4-L 4 Cyl turbo) "Check engine light kept coming on even after replacement of break peddle assembly pieces one at a time until they finally fixed the problem" An X indicates that the vehicle was not manufactured for a specific year. N/A indicates that we did not receive a large enough sample size to provide data for a specific year. Our subscribers provide great insights into their satisfaction by answering one simple question: If they had it to do all over again, would they definitely buy or lease the same model? In addition, respondents also rate their cars in six categories: driving experience, comfort, value, styling, audio, and climate systems. To learn about satisfaction, CR has collected survey data from our annual survey on more than half a million vehicles. Based on this data and further analysis, we predict reliability for the latest year. Extra weight is given to the more serious areas such as major engine or transmission problems. ![]() The results are presented relative to the average model that year. Consumer Reports subscribers reported on any serious problems they had with their vehicles during the past 12 months that they considered serious because of cost, failure, safety, or downtime, in any of the trouble spots included in the table below.

It's a neat and cute cat, I'll say that, but the rack on top is basically useless as you can't actually attach anything up there, the cubby under the radio is too shallow for a phone to sit in, and not big enough for anything else, honestly, the space under that isn't really big enough for anything either, and the storage area in between the seats has a cute little slide-close cover but it's also not big enough for much of anything, the extra glove box is literally only big enough for gloves or wipes or something, the passenger seat is not all that adjustable like the driver seat, the Bluetooth doesn't automatically connect to your device, and there's something up with the locks acting up that I haven't diagnosed yet. All the things have ran together in my head because they all severely irritated me since they were so close in occurrence, had similar symptoms, and cost a pretty ugly penny for such a newly released car (at the time) and it's looking like one of the previous mentioned issues is beginning to arise again currently. Turbocharger need replaced, oxygen sensor needed replaced, some valve thing needed replaced, etc. Each problem was major and they lined up so that as soon as one was fixed, something else would go wrong. And that's aside from regular service costs. Within less than 2 years I had spent at least $4000 additional on replacing parts or on other issues that required immediate attention and by Buick specific dealerships. I like this car and got it used but at a lower mileage in 2019. ![]()
