  Rendezvous Requires Repairs - 2002 Buick Rendezvous
  By skbenedict - March 28 - 10:00 am

  First week of ownership, we had to take the car in for a malfunctioning climate control. By mid to late April, the car spent 1 1/2 weeks in the shop for a faulty electrical system (Body Control Module). The part had to be ordered twice as the first one had a glitch in it. The parts for this car are few and far between and not easily attainable. Im also disappointed in the mileage. Buick advertises 18/24 and we havent seen it go above 18 on the highway. Isnt there a law against false advertisement?

  Better than Grand Cherokee - 2002 Buick Rendezvous
  By Todd Hoover - February 16 - 2:00 am

  After two trouble-free years, my CXL is as quiet as when I got it, more comfortable and smoother ride than the Grand Cherokee it replaced. I highly recommend "crossovers" as they get better mileage, ride better and handle more like a car.

  1 Month Review - 2002 Buick Rendezvous
  By ppalonsky - February 14 - 10:00 am

  After 1 month, this car is proving to be a very impressive vehicle. The RDV does most everything well, but I cant say it is the best in class on any given aspect. The interior looks great, but the materials used have a somewhat cheap feel to them. The car does not have as much room as a minivan, but looks great. The versatrak AWD works well, but it cant go offroad like an SUV. The ride is very carlike but not up to the level of a luxary car. It manages to bring together most of the positive aspects of a luxary sedan, SUV and Minivan in one package. I guess it may be the best in class afterall in the crossover vehicle catagory.
