Great in gas, reliable, beautiful car

Great car, all around. Interior is beautiful, the car drives great, not a big SUV. Unique features like a heated steering wheel and mirrors that tilt down when in reverse.

Quiet comfortable and stylish.

I have had my Encore since 1/2014. In 3 years I have driven 60,000 miles with no issues. It is amazingly quiet and comfortable at a much better price than luxury brands. I love the exterior and interior styling. It's size makes it easy to park. I love this vehicle. It's keeper.

Great value

Bought a2014 Buick encore leftover with conviencence package and really love it. Great gas mileage, comfortable, and love the look... Powerful without being a race car. No xxxxxxon highway and passing.. Has a turbo, so when you want power is there. Had GMC Terrain, and very happy with this car.

Blind side

Left front mirror sets to high on the door causing a total blind site for viewing front left hand turns. An average size female sees only the rear/mirror reflection which along with the tinted trim moulding and left of windshield SUV body causes a large front left blind view while pulling left hand off road. The mirrors should have been manufactured lower on the door panels, even with the top of door/window opening.
