Rendezvous 6-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 55,000 miles
Front wheel bearings on 2004-2005 Buick Rendezvous fail at 50-60,000 miles. This is a common repair item if you talk with auto repair shops and dealers. One local repair shop repaired 6 vehicles the same week - all with front wheel bearing failure.

Rendezvous 6-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 52,000 miles
Both front wheel bearings had to be replaced with only 52,000 miles on the vehicle. This component failure was extremely premature and indicates a defect in the wheel bearings. Another compliant to NHTSA listed the same problem on a vehicle with only 43,000 miles.

I had to have both front wheel bearings replaced at 43,000 miles. I did extensive research and have found this to be a common problem with this vehicle. It seems unreasonable to have to spend almost $800 to replace bearings which should last at least 100,000 miles.
