Consumer Description

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.
