Hey, I have the same problem with my 2003. It only occurs if the engine is hot or the car has been running. If i turn off the engine, I can start it, but it will quickly stall on me. It seems that this is the same problem that many of you have. Has anyone found anyways to correct it? I took it to the dealership twice and they haven't been able to find whats wrong. Thanks, Nick

Update -- not long after making my post regarding my 2006 Buick RDV, the dealership mechanics ended up replacing the "fuse block". It was there another week before they decided that the was problem. They could never get it to stall on them so that they could see the problem. We had it up until 10/1/08, and we got a great deal on a new Ford Taurus X (their new crossover), and I love it. My lease wasn't up until March 2009, but they bought out my lease, and I still got a great price for all of the options I wanted. The Buick was very reliable for almost all of the 2.5 years that I had it, so I wouldn't comdemn it, but all I can say is thank goodness for warranties!!!!!!!!! |

I had 2 yrs of issues and intermitten problems - Turning it on and it craked but would not start and one time it stalled at 75mph on the Free way - very bad. Was in one shop three times and finally replaced ignition module that helped, but then it happened again and they could not find a problem. Past summer it would not start - ended up being the Fuel pump 40, 000 miles on the car. So i'm thinking was it really a bad fuel pump for the past 3 yrs I had it. So maybe its your fuel pump too. By the way, the fuel pump has been modified since production so the dealer had to get the part from GM. Another thing it always turned slow - replaced the battery - much better now Good luck.

Hi I have a 2004 Buick Rendezvous, I have to hold gas pedal partway down to start hot or cold engine most of the time it stalls, but if I keep the RPM's up and start driving it run's great, but sometimes slowing down for a stop it stalls. It has been to dealer about 6 times they replaced fuel injectors twice, removed and cleaned gas tank, did throttle body flush etc. I'm out of warranty about 106,000 miles been a problem for about 3 years. Also speedometer recently started reading 50 mph over actual speed, can reset by turning ignition on and off about 20 times. Please help Thankyou Jeff |

Replying to: clarkamerican (Jun 21, 2009 3:57 am) Also because of electrical requirements of todays cars, the battery has to be at its peak. When the engine seems to turn over slow check the battery - Walmart will do it for free Can u tell me what ground u cleaned on your buick? location etc. Ok thanks |
