Factory ordered and purchased on 8/23/02. 11/28/02 - vehicle dead in driveway/no electricity at all. Dealer charged battery. 2/03/03 - vehicle died while driving/no electricity at all. Dealer ran diagnostics tests all passed, installed electrical patch to system. 12/3/03 - vehicle dead in driveway/no electricity at all. Dealer replaced battery, said old one had one bad cell. 3/28/03 - vehicle dead in driveway/no electricity al all. Currently at dealership. Vehicle's manufacturer warranty will end in 3 months. I can not ethically sell this vehicle to someone knowing of its electrical problem which can cause a deadly accident. I'm totally screwed with no way to be made right - nc lemon law no longer applies.

Most recent owner complaints, unedited.
I have had two wheel bearings replaced on my '03 rendezvous within 4k miles only to be told this will be a continuous problem that there are no plans to rectify I was told by the dealership to sell the car, buy an extended warranty, or pay the repair bill every time this happens once I am out of warranty I have not had any harm come to me but with all the rendezvous on the road it is only a matter of time before this defect that gm ignores hurts or kills someone.
