Rendezvous Ultra

  • Automatic transmission
  • 110,000 miles

This car has had all services required and I really like it comfortable, big engine, right height to get in and out (I'm 81) Took to garage estimate was $3k. Then they were not able to get parts. Then came back with- if we could get them, the price would be $5k with no warranty. Now I have a big paper weight.

  • Automatic transmission
  • 50,000 miles

transmission disintegrated

the piece of sh*t car has been nothing but trouble since it reach 50 000 miles. this is my wifes car bought it brand new never abused as the mileage shows. the car has been cared for oil changes when the computer said to do. the transmission started to act weird and then it just disintegrated. took it out and appart found the gears on the diferential were turn to powder have no clue why a car with 50 thousand miles this kind of damage can happen one thing for sure I know I will never ever buy another general motor car as long as I live I can go on and say all the problems on this vehicle but whats the point they knew from the start even on early years the transmission was troubled from broken second gear bands to unhardened splines on the fourth gear you name it they had it just wish I dint waste my hard earned money on such junk lack of quality vehicle then they wonder why americans buy foreing cars
