Bought 2002 Buick Rendezvous cxl from carmax with 29k miles. Seemed to run ok for first couple months. . . At around 36k miles, the condenser went out at the same time as the odometer started to display "error". Unacceptable for condenser to fail with just 3 years of light use. Also, had to replace instrument panel to get rid of error - took a week to ship the error panel to factory so they could read mileage and set on a new panel to ship back to the dealer. Luckily I purchased extended warranty, but I still have a 75 deductable for every repair and rental vehicle is not covered.
