2007 Buick Rendezvous Recalls, Ratings & Complaints

Incident: April 4, 2026 · Filed: April 15, 2026

Due to lack of maintenance complete corrosion and rust have eaten through the entire body frame, undercarriage etc. This vehicle was sold to us at State line Auto LLC in Fulton Kentucky, without any disclosure of it being unsafe to drive in fact the rust spots underneath the vehicle have been covered and hidden by spray painting diligently, unfortunately the disguise of the rust with a black paint actually worked and we were unable to see the rest as it was hidden with the paint that they sprayed on the bottom of the vehicle. were assured that everything was in proper working order aside from it needing an oil change which was indicated by an engine light that was lit on, this car has been deemed unsafe to drive even after complete replacement of frame this car remains structurally unsafe to even have an alignment done. As per TnA Auto services and plaza tire. Plz contact to advise [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
