Great car ruined by annoying rattle

I love this car for the most part. Great gas mileage in mid 30s, comfortable for my long daily drives, somewhat sporty for a little sedan, and it looks great inside and out. Unfortunately it has a vibration/rattle in the b pillars and the sunroof. It has been in the dealer for 3 visits and a total of 3 1/2 days the last time. They seem to fix one and create another. Also slight vision issue with the huge "A" pillar. Sometimes blocks out things in a turn. The controls are a little confusing in the beginning but I really like them now compared to those in my wife's 2016 canyon. I do like the ability to put the GPS as a split screen with the radio as well.

Test drove this car. Liked it, but didnt love it.

The styling is great. Very pretty car with great performance and gas mileage, but it was just a little too small for my taste

Best Car I have ever owned

I love being able to connect my phone to the car and be able to listen to Pandora on my trips where my radio stations do not work.

Used vehicle and proud to own it!

Very happy with the car. My wife had owned SUV's for oh 15 years now and I convinced her To look at an affordable Buick. The verano met all her needs , is extremely stylish inside and out and a treat for her to drive. Too. Ad they have stopped making them effective 2017.

Very comfortable

It is very comfortable just sitting on the driver's seat, or on the road. I own a Buick Verano leather trim and I have been enjoying driving it.

Love my Buick Verano

I'm in love with my new Buick Verano. It rides smooth and has quite the 'pick up and go '. Not only is the 2016 Buick equipped with all the latest features such as On star, XM radio, and Bluetooth, but it's safety features are top of the line. The ONLY reason I couldn't give it 5 stars all the way across the board is because I'm a female and the car lacks enough storage space in the cab of the vehicle, the trunk however, is huge! I highly recommend this vehicle!

Great Vehicle

Traded in my 1994 Ford Mustang for the Verano in early 2016. One of the best financial decisions that I have ever made. I really like the interior of the car, extremely comfortable. The backup camera works EXTREMELY well, with alerts that come even if the car approaching from the side is not yet visible. I have grown to really like the blind spot sensor on the side mirrors, which is something that I thought I would never really use. OnStar connectivity is also really nice. I don't pay for a subscription with OnStar (just have the "Basic Plan"), but still being able to control my car from my phone (start car, unlock doors, horn/lights) is really convenient for those days that are really hot and the inside of the car is burning (starting the car remotely causes the temperature inside to be brought to ~70 F). Bluetooth connectivity works well most of the time, but on occasion my phone will just appear to disconnect and the music that I am playing randomly (I use Google Play Music to stream) will stop. My phone doesn't completely disconnect in that I can still make calls and such during these periods, but my music stopping like that can get quite annoying. Not sure if this is an actual issue with the vehicle's bluetooth or my phone (iPhone 6). The voice recognition works VERY well for making calls (even if there are people in the back seat having idle conversation) The trunk surprisingly has quite a bit of space for a smaller car, also having the ability to fold down the rear seat backs to open up the trunk for additional space is nice. I do a lot of city driving with plenty of stops during my commute for lights (work commute is about 30 miles overall a day). Even with all these stops I still get fairly good gas mileage, only needing to fill up every 2 weeks or so (overall average since I have had the vehicle is 24 MPG with a few weekend trips driving 400-600 miles of freeway each time). The worst thing about the vehicle is the small back window. The backup camera is so good that it would be an incredible feat to actually back into anything, but I have noticed quite often just how small that back window actually is. At the time I got the Verano I was also looking at the 2016 Chevy Cruze and Malibu. After test driving all three I really felt that the quality of the Verano was overall higher than these models (these are still both very nice cars) and that the difference in monthly payments between the Verano and the Cruze was worth it. Overall high marks from me on the vehicle quality.
