'Buick' Should NOT Be Duplicitous About Claiming They Provide PRINTED Owner's Manuals.

I was surprised & PLEASED to see that Buick claimed that I would get a PRINTED Owner's Manual with the 2025 'Envision' that I leased 2-days ago. I was impressed.

Quite a few car manufacturers no longer do. They say it is ONLINE.

That was the case 4 years ago when I leased my 'Volvo' 'XC60'. No printed manual provided. You could buy one from Volvo for (I think) $70.

But, Buick SAYS they provide a printed manual.

Providing printed manuals is EXPENSIVE. Plus there is the issue with UPDATES -- especially IF the vehicle is made in China & spends 6 months in transit.

Well, the Envision came with a slim printed manual -- & YES, there is an ELECTRONIC one built into the Infortainment system.

The printed one is a BLOODY JOKE.

It is NOT EVEN COMPLETE. 

NO PICTURE OF THE INSTRUMENT PANEL! That is pretty basic.

The page that is supposed to have the Panel is part blank.

My issue is JUST THE DUPLICITY.

Don't CLAIM you provide a printed manual IF it is of ZERO bloody use.

Just be HONEST. Say NO PRINTED, please refer to version in the car or online.

I hate being lied to

Just letting YOU know.

Buick DOES NOT PROVIDE a PRINTED owner's manual. They provide a collection of incomplete pages.

I hope the car is better than the bloody manual.

NOT happy. NOT pleased. Buggers.
