General question about Buick reliability

Topic starter

Hello. I know you did a few videos in the past about Buick, and I wanted to ask your opinion on the brand in today's market.

Despite GM's reputation, from what I gather, Buick is still thought of as an "old person's car." I, for one, like the design on a couple of models, more specifically the Envista. The only thing that gives me second thoughts is the 1.2 liter turbo engine. Would it still be a good used buy?

No. (A three-cylinder turbocharged engine - are you kidding me?)

Take your pick: Engine problems. Transmission problems. Electrical system problems. Probably no surprise as these are manufactured in China and South Korea.

Buick at one time was a premium, high quality vehicle. That was a very long time ago. Today only the name remains. If you were talking about something like a 1965 Buick Wildcat it would be a very different discussion.

It's just marketing and sheet metal. Underneath lie the same components as in the rest of the GM line-up.
