general problems of the 2006 Buick Rendezvous

The contact owns a 2006 Buick Rendezvous. The contact stated that after purchasing the vehicle, it was discovered that the front passenger’s side suspension sway bar was bent. Additionally, while driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle stalled after driving approximately 50 feet. The cause of the failure was not yet been determined. The manufacturer and local dealer were not yet contacted. The failure mileage was 134,103.

Engine timing chain slipped causing vehicle to become undrivable.

I purchased this vehicle used in December 2014, the very first night driving it home, the engine would nit start. I immediately called the dealer, took the car back and watched as they ran a diagnostic. Nothing was wrong with it. I did some research and it seems to be a normal issue with the make and model. Then I noticed the faulty gas guage, reading low fuel then all of a sudden I have gas. Again, contacted the dealer, took it back and yet again, diagnostic ran with clear readings. I looked up thaylt issue and of course, complaints about the same issue were common. Finally, on April 9th I was on my way home and was involved in an accident. It was a front impact accident which totaled the vehicle. The air bags failed to deploy. The windshield was completely shattered, glass flew everywhere. After the front impact, the vehicle rolled over then landed on on the passengers side. How is it safe to have multiple complaints about serious issues and nothing be done about it by the manufactures! I almost lost my life due to the airbags failing which is a, yet again, a common complaint!.

I was traveling down the interstate doing the speed limit of 70mph. Out of nowhere, the car flashed "reduced engine power" light and would not accelerate. Then the "service engine soon" light came on and a red battery light also. The car lost all power and power steering. I had to force the car into the emergency lane on the interstate without wrecking. I turned the ignition off and let the car sit for a couple of minutes and it started back up. I made it about 10 miles down the road and it did it again. Car will not run more than 10-15 mins without shutting off. Will not drive this car!!! very dangerous for everybody!.
