  • 114,324 miles
Undetected safety hazard with 2003 Buick Rendezvous..spent over 11,000 with repairs & maintenance on this SUV and now over 5000 dollars trying to find the reason for the vehicle to keep shutting down after appx. 40 miles of stop and go traffic..have had many close calls of being hit when this happens and have had the vehicle in 5 times to the dealer to diagnose the problem to no avail..can not afford to trade and should not have too..it loses power too when this problem happens..they say they can not duplicate it when they drive it..I have had 2 other people experience this problem..I believe this is a very big concern for my safety and others too.
