1 Starter Solenoid problem of the 2004 Buick Rendezvous

Failure Date: 06/04/2019

No acceleration,when I go up a hill no acceleration, or when I go to get on the highway no acceleration, and very dangerous. I went to dealership for a diagnostic test and I replaced fuel tank pressure sensor and vent solenoid, no acceleration. I went to another dealership for diagnostic. They recommended that I replace 3 electrical harnesses and connectors $1350 dollars parts and labor too much for me and that may not solve my problem. I told them the problem was corrosion in the connectors to the fuel pump $160 dollars later they agreed with me. Still dangerous.

2 Starter Solenoid problem of the 2006 Buick Rendezvous

Failure Date: 09/21/2010

On sept. 21, 2010, while driving my child to school. I pulled out into the highway where my 2006 Buick Rendezvous stalled out and the service engine light soon came on. On sept. 22, 2010 I took my Rendezvous to the Buick shop where they scanned for codes that came back as the camshaft position sensor faulty. A new sensor was installed and codes cleared on sept. 23, 2010. On sept. 23, 2010 my Rendezvous stalled again and service engine light soon came on while driving on the interstate. On sept. 24, 2010 I returned my Rendezvous to the dealer, they scanned for codes and the codes came back as the camshaft position sensor faulty again. After a thorough investigation the mechanic found that the part #15306175 a connector and part #15832816 f-harness on the Rendezvous had a short ground and melted wires. Part #15306175 connector is an egr power valve solenoid connector and part #15832816 f-harness is the harness asm-eng wires. The harness in question was sitting on the top of the battery because of a flaw in the design of engine wiring and where the wire is made to hook on the engine belt cover. This caused the wire harness to be covered in battery acid and corrode and melt the wires. My 2006 Buick Rendezvous had 68,847 miles on the vehicle at the time this problem started with a repair cost of $330. 64 for the camshaft position sensor faulty code which really was not the problem to begin with to the cost of $1,113. 95 for the replacement of the engine wiring harness being flawed. Because this to me is a safety issue that can and could be prevented. I have checked out other Buick Rendezvous on sale and owned by others in my area and the same problem is occurring on these vehicles. The electrical short and melting of the wires could have caused a serious accident for me and my family or others on the road.

Failure Date: 02/08/2008

2002 Buick Rendezvous, - sold by gm s "gm certified". . Only must have been a joke. From the onset, solenoid difficulties created dangerous situation on highway, called them and spoke rather bluntly. . . That was after many, many calls. Wipers didn't work in the rain. . . Would stick. . Very dangerous while driving. Intake manifold gasket - cost one thousand dollars. . Fuel gauge does not work. Car does not run. . Get stuck for the past two months, at least three times per week. Paid four hundred dollars to replace "things". . Still gets stuck. . Now car won't start. Sometimes, windows don't work, car won't lock or unlock, car won't start. At this point, car is dead. Bcm? who knows. Disaster car. It's a gift from god that we're not dead.
