2004 Buick Rendezvous has stalled twice while driving. (car is 10 months old) 1st incidence occured while turning into a parking space at a busy mall parking lot. Car did start right back up. Called local dealership to bring in. They said there was a bullentin regarding this issue and replaced the fuse box. The 2nd incidence after the fuse box was replaced happended 5/27/05. My husband was driving the vehicle and it stalled while he was driving in a parking lot. Car did start up again. Called dealership and brought car in. They can not locate the problem. I asked what happens if this happens again and they advised to just keep bringing it in after it happens to examine car. Please note this is my 3rd Rendezvous and my first Rendezvous (2001) this exact same thing happened except I was on the turnpike driving 55 mph when it stalled and didn't start right back up and had to be towed. (state troopers were involved with this incidence) the dealership could not locate the problem. Needless to say since I was a gm employee they did a collateral trade since I refused to drive the vehicle due to the safety issue.

Stalls slowing down at red lights,corners or driving through parking lots could result in being struck from behind with resultant serious injuries. Visited dealer for fourth time and inquired as to any new service bulletins from general motors and was advised that there were none.

I travel from michigan to florida every year and in June 2004 bought a Buick Rendezvous. It intermittently does not want to start. Never know when it will happen.

Sounds like something we should worry about. . .
