Purchased this vehicle brand new and had all the required
Purchased this vehicle brand new and had all the required maintenance done. Took it in for the 50k service and also to investigate a rough idle and a chirping noise. GMC dealership indicated that a main bearing is out and the entire would need to be replaced for 15k. The bumper to bumper warranty just ended. - Purchased a New car

Bought the car used with 17,000 miles.
Bought the car used with 17,000 miles. No issue until the engine light came on at 84,000 miles. It needs a turbo charger replacement per the dealership. There is a recall on some of the 2017 models but mine has the smaller of the two engines and not the engine on the recall. Costs will total $2900. Ouch. - Purchased a Used car

I use the car for personal use.
I use the car for personal use. Under 6,000 mi/yr. Was doing just great. Really reliable. Only needed to replace battery, wipers and tires. Until all of a sudden, driving steady @‘50 mph, the engine lost power and emitted a huge light grey cloud. I’ve just replaced the engine and have much different feelings. Hope fixing it was the right choice. - Purchased a Used car

DO NOT BUY! THIS CAR IS A MONEY PIT!
I am reviewing for the 2017 Buick Encore Sport Touring AWD. This car is TERRIBLE! I have had to replace SO many parts on it. The engine was bad and the mechanics had a hard time figuring it out! Turbo charger, catalytic converter, the engine, 02 censors, shocks and suspension, all wore out in less than 100,000 miles. I purchased the vehicle with 114,000 miles on it and likely not 10-40k miles later did it begin having endless problems. Even after replacing all of the parts including the engine it STILL has the engine light on with the previous codes just because the computer didn't collaborate it because it wasn't a dealer part. I spent $10,000 repairing this vehicle after buying it for $14,000. The engine with turbo was $6700 after parts and labor and I took it to a shop with a below-average cost for labor too! The engine surprisingly went several hundred if not 1000-2000 miles before finally blowing a piston. This car, however, constantly burns oil, mixes oil and coolant, and constantly has problems. Aside from that, the performance of this car and pick up is VERY weak. The transmission slips and the engine doesn't pick up very fast when trying to pull out into a busy driveway...or anywhere else for that matter, making it unsafe to drive, even with AWD. Do not waste your money on this. Buick is NOT a good car company. Luxury cars are literally made for luxury and NOTHING ELSE! - Purchased a Used car

Knock on Wood. No problems like the other reviews
I leased this 2017 Encore in 2017 after the lease was up I bought it. Now in 2024 I am just putting tires on it. I put a new battery in last year. That's it! I change the oil. I have read the bad reviews and am surprised. To be fair I drive in town and 6000 to 7000 miles a year. - Purchased a New car

Great and Economical!
I have had this car since 2017. This is the first car ever that I have owned, I like the fact that it is simply economical and efficient around the city. The only thing I have done is that the engine has something wrong with it very now and then. But overall it's the best car I drive. I would recommend this as your first car because its economical. - Purchased a New car

Worst vehicle ever
Worst car I ever owned. Had a bunch of warranty work done before that expired but thank god I purchased an extended bumper to bumper warranty. From day one I felt there was something wrong as it felt like it had no power going up hills. We broke down out of state. Had to replace the turbocharger 2 times within a year. I’ve replaced the calipers twice already and I’m under 100,000 miles. Had antifreeze leak 3 times in one year. Every few months it’s something new. Don’t buy this car! - Purchased a New car

Seriously. Don’t Buy This Car, Huge Money Pit
Buy at your own risk. It’s cute and spacious with good gas mileage but it car seems to top out at around 65,000 miles before literally everything wears out, including sensors that will not allow you to turn your car on. I cannot count the number of times I’ve been stranded (5+) bc this car will not turn on. - Purchased a Used car

Ours didn't even last 50,000 miles
So where to start, this model is a blight on suvs everywhere. So before 50,000 miles, trouble started shortly after 40,000 miles, had to replace the turbo charge, if it would not have been under warranty it would have cost 1500.00 US, the rear brakes for everything because they just fell apart 1100.00, intake manifold 700.00, the last two in the same week. All three with in the same month, so think ok it is all good, nope it has overheated on the highway. You would be better off walking, avoid these lemons. - Purchased a Used car
