2017 Buick Encore consumer reviews

This car was very reliable just a high for the up keep service.... If possible I would buy another on some day... and it would be Q60.

As soon as I drove this car I did not want to see any other car. This was the one I wanted, you might say love at first sight. Took it for a spin and yep, this is now my car. I love driving it and feel so comfy in it.

This car meets all my needs. It has great gas mileage. The engine has god pickup. It is sporty looking and has alot of the new features making it easy to drive.

Its comfortable in the front back seats sit straight up not comfortable. I loved it until i was driving and stabilitrak service light came on tge. Reduced power a d i was almost hit from the back ,now im stuck with a scary car in my yard .🥺😓😞😩 GM help me i went to you tube theirs others with this problem.

So far it's good on gas, it's comfortable, and easy to drive, I love it. I didn't think I would like this car but driving it changed my mind.

This car is perfect to put the major car problems I’ve had in the past with my old car. I’m beyond happy with my new ride.

this vehicle is the right size for me. I like how it sits higher than a car. Its very comfortable. I wish the seats were a bit larger but that is the only concern I have. everything else is just right

So far, it drives great and it so many extra comforts I did not have before. I believe I will really enjoy driving this car

Test drove the vehicle. I really liked the features , has Apple CarPlay & a lot of safety features. Very nice interior design. It has a smooth ride.

I moved from a stick shift car to this Encore. If I had a choice it also would be a stick shift as they are more fun to drive and better at gear usage than automatics. Sadly sticks are mostly history. That being said, this Encore is a great car for driving around town and for parking. The instrument panel is easy to use, reach and pleasing to the eye. Too many new car designers really mess up the dash in my opinion, Buick's designers for the most part don't. I've had no machanical issues in three years and 18,000 miles but than I obviously am not pushing it too hard. While I have taken it on long road trips, due to issues with our normal trip car, I don't recommend it for that as your primary long trip road car due to engine performance (again stick shift would help), seating comfort, and storage capacity. Gas mileage is good. What's the two things I don't like (covers most brands however: Navigation updates are way too expensive, hence I ignore them. If necessary I use a standalone Garmin with unlimited lifetime updates or several similar apps from our iPhones. This should be a lifetime benefit for buying the new car, all brands, not a continuing profit cash cow. Second would be the cost for mudflaps...again over priced add ons, they should be standard on premium trim levels. Bottom line is that I think it is a good brand and model for a senior to drive around town and an occasional road trip car for it's ease to get in and out off (front seats), gas mileage, parking, and instrument panel. The Encore GX is slightly bigger and might be better for some however they have a smaller engine than a regular Encore...not the direction I would have gone.
