Q: Buick Rendezvous?
This question is for anyone who owes or has owned a Buick Rendezvous.... I am interested in the gas mileage for this vehicle. I looked it up online and the manufactuer said it gets19-26 mpg but alot of times this is not accurate and they get a good bit less. With the rising gas prices I am looking for something that gets good gas mileage but larger then a car so that is why I am lending toward a crossover SUV. If you have any information on this vehicle - please let me know.

Q: 2002 Toyota Highlander or a 2004 Buick Rendezvous?
I am looking to purchase a new car and have a budget of about $11,000. I have found that I can either afford a 2002 Toyota Highlander with high mileage, near 105k miles or a 2004 Buick Rendezvous with about 50k miles on it. Which vehicle will I have better luck with both MPG, repairs and resale value?

A: Normally I like newer and lower mileage. However this is a no brainer. Go with the Toyota. It will hold up longer and be more reliable. The Buick did not have a very good record and is not even made any more.

Q: Anyone have any person experience with a Buick Rendezvous?
We're thinking of buying one. We looked at the Chevy Trailblazer and the Ford Explorer, but both of those seem to have transmission trouble. Have you ever had any problems with your Buick?

A: Buick makes the most reliable vehicles in the US as stated by JD Powers and associates. You should not have problems with this vehicle. The cons are that you can only get a 4-speed transmission where others have 5-speed. If you really want something reliable why not give a look at a toyota highlander. The look is a bit ordinary but a great vehicle. Good look in your car shopping.

Q: How do I remove the headlamp assemby in my 2002 Buick Rendezvous?
I don't need to replace the bulbs, but the entire assembly and I can't get it out. I see that there is one screw at the top of the assembly, but I think there is another screw at the bottom that I can't see.

A: Lugnut above me here has it right,I did one last week.It was easy,just pry up on the 2 fork/tabs/retainers and it slips out with a little twisting and turning.I think the grille may have needed to come out too,if so it simply snaps in .The whole front comes apart with no tools.
