Puddle jumper
By KT Manning on 11/25/2025 7:02:01 PM
This car has been extremely reliable and very fuel efficient. It has been a wonderful little car for the family have 106,000 miles on it already. Never had a problem with this car whatsoever. It’s been great in Iowa where we faced the winners I have the all-wheel drive. It’s been just great. I highly recommend this car. I will be buying the bigger one next time but this one car has been rolling strong. - 5.0

I bought the Buick Encore for my daughter. Safety was the most important for me and this compact suv meets that requirement. It’s also easy for a new driver to learn in. It’s also a pretty little thing too. My daughter loves it!
