THE FIRST PROBLEM THAT OCCURRED WAS THE ENGINE OVERHEATED AND THE WATER PUMP HAD TO BE REPLACED. CAR WAS ONLY 3 YEARS OLD WITH 20,140 MILES ON IT. SINCE THEN THE MAIN PROBLEMS HAVE BEEN WITH THE SUNROOF LEAKING. THIS CAUSED THE BLOWER MOTOR TO FAIL. THE WATER LEAKS HAVE HAPPENED AT LEAST 4 TIMES. THE DRAINS KEEP CLOGGING. THERE IS NO FIX FOR THIS ACCORDING TO THE DEALER. NOT ACCEPTABLE! THEY TOLD ME NOT TO PARK UNDER TREES. ARE YOU KIDDING ME? I'VE HAD SUNROOFS BEFORE AND NEVER HAD A PROBLEM. THE RECALL FOR THE DRAIN EXTENSIONS DID NOTHING. EVENTUALLY THERE WILL BE OTHER PROBLEMS. WHO KNOWS WHAT ELSE IS GETTING WET WHERE I CAN'T SEE IT. MOLD IS INEVITABLE. I HAVE 3 KIDS AND THIS IS RIDICULOUS. I DIDN'T SPEND ALL THIS MONEY FOR A PIECE OF JUNK! I WILL NEVER BUY GM AGAIN IF THEY DON'T DO SOMETHING. *KB
2011
POWER TRAIN
BUICK ENCLAVE 2011: THE CAR ROLLS DOWN UNCONTROLLABLY ON HILLS WHILE IN GEAR WHETHER IN DRIVE OR REVERSE, AND IS VERY HARD TO CONTROL. THIS ALSO REQUIRES VERY QUICK MOVEMENT FROM BRAKE TO ACCELERATOR. THERE IS NO "HILL HOLD" FEATURE AND DRIVETRAIN PROVIDES NO RESISTANCE. WE DEAL WITH THIS PROBLEM EVERY DAY WHILE DRIVING OUR DRIVEWAY AND INTO OUR GARAGE. THE MINUTE WE ATTEMPT TO PULL UP TO THE GARAGE, THE CAR/SUV STARTS ROLLING BACKWARDS AND YOU HAVE TO CONDUCT A COUPLE OF QUICK STEPS TO STOP IT. I IMAGINE THIS CAUSES WEAR AND TEAR ON THE BRAKES AND OTHER PARTS OF THE VEHICLE. A SERVICE REP AT THE DEALERSHIP SAID THIS WAS NORMAL AND TOLD ME ABOUT OTHER MANUFACTURERS THAT HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM FROM GMC. I DRIVE A SECOND CAR AND IT NEVER DOES THIS. I BELIEVE THIS IS A BUICK ENCLAVE PROBLEM. *TR
