2005 BUICK RENDEZVOUS Suspension Problems

IT FEELS LIKE THE TRANSMISSION IS GOING OUT BUT ONLY SOMETIMES. ON OCCASION IT WILL BE DRIVING FINE THEN I GO TO PULL OFF FROM A STOP AND IT JUST WONT REALLY GO LIKE MAYBE SKIPS 1ST GEAR OR AT LEAST PART OF IT. IT'S CRAZY AND DANGEROUS. I DO NOT BELIEVE IT TO BE THE TRANSMISSION. ONLY HAPPENS FROM COMPLETE STOP, SOMETIMES. BUICK RENDEZVOUS 05

I PURCHASED A NEW 2005 BUICK RENDEZVOUS CXL AND HAVE HAD TO REPLACE THE FRONT LEFT BEARING AND HUB ASSEMBLY IN JULY 2008, THEN IN APRIL 2009 THE RIGHT FRONT CONTROL ARM BUSHING SEPARATED AND THE DEALER REPLACED THE HUB ASSEMBLY AGAIN, THEN IN SEPT.2010 THE BUSHINGS AND FRONT CONTROL ARM ON THE FRONT LEFT SIDE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AGAIN. I ALSO HAD TO HAVE THE THROTTLE BODY REPLACED BECAUSE OF ACCELERATION PROBLEMS. SO FAR NO ONE HAS BEEN HURT OR ANY ACCIDENTS, BUT HOW LONG AND HOW MANY BEARINGS AND BUSHINGS AND ASSEMBLIES DO I NEED TO REPLACE BEFORE A RECALL IS ISSUED? *KB

WHILE SLOWING DOWN OR AT STOP LIGHTS, CAR WILL JUST STALL. SO FAR IT HAS RESTARTED EVERY TIME. MECHANIC CAN NOT FIND ANY PROBLEMS. FRUSTRATED AND AFRAID TO DRIVE FAR FROM HOME. I HAVE ALSO REPLACED RIGHT SIDE WHEEL BEARINGS AT 42,000 MILES. *TR

BUICK 2005 RENDEZVOUS CONSTANT LOUD WHINING OR MOANING NOISE WHEN YOU TURN THE WHEEL REGARDLESS OF SPEED. IT IS EMBARRASSING. NO ONE CAN FIGURE IT OUT. IT HAS BEEN ONGOING FOR OVER A YEAR NOW. *TR

FRONT WHEEL BEARINGS ON 2004-2005 BUICK RENDEZVOUS FAIL AT 50-60,000 MILES. THIS IS A COMMON REPAIR ITEM IF YOU TALK WITH AUTO REPAIR SHOPS AND DEALERS. ONE LOCAL REPAIR SHOP REPAIRED 6 VEHICLES THE SAME WEEK - ALL WITH FRONT WHEEL BEARING FAILURE. *TR

Mileage: 55,000

ALL WHEEL DRIVE DISABLED WARNING AND ABS LIGHT CAME ON. ALSO LOSS OF POWER WHILE GOING UP HILL. INTERNET STATES PROBLEM IS PROBABLY CAUSED BY WHEEL BEARINGS. 2002 TO 2004 ARE COVERED WITH EXTENDED WARRANTY. 2005 IS NOT. *TR

Mileage: 36,000

BOTH FRONT WHEEL BEARINGS HAD TO BE REPLACED WITH ONLY 52,000 MILES ON THE VEHICLE. THIS COMPONENT FAILURE WAS EXTREMELY PREMATURE AND INDICATES A DEFECT IN THE WHEEL BEARINGS. ANOTHER COMPLIANT TO NHTSA LISTED THE SAME PROBLEM ON A VEHICLE WITH ONLY 43,000 MILES. *JB

Mileage: 52,000

I HAD TO HAVE BOTH FRONT WHEEL BEARINGS REPLACED AT 43,000 MILES. I DID EXTENSIVE RESEARCH AND HAVE FOUND THIS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS VEHICLE. IT SEEMS UNREASONABLE TO HAVE TO SPEND ALMOST $800 TO REPLACE BEARINGS WHICH SHOULD LAST AT LEAST 100,000 MILES. *NM
