I never thought I would buy a Buick

2011 Buick Enclave CXL1 4dr SUV (3.6L 6cyl 6A)
Pros: comfort, ride, quietness, styling, space, utility Cons: gas mileage, needs tighter steering, better visibility out the back. Summary: I had test drove Pilot, MDX, RX350, Sorento, VeraCruz, SantaFe, Highlander, Acadia, Traverse and Edge. For the size, comfort, range, performance, convenience and price, the Enclave stood out among its competiton IMO) - this selection was not only … a surprise to me but those who know me as well - particularly since I have been a Honda/Acura person for many years. The Enclave is a very nice car and if I had to do it over again, I would purchase it again.
scary

2011 Buick Enclave CXL1 4dr SUV (3.6L 6cyl 6A)
I have had my Buick for about two and a half years now and love just about everything about it.
It is comfortable, responsive, hold lots of people and things.
My only concern is about six months ago my "service air bag" light came on.
So I promptly took it to the dealer where they had it for several days and repaired the faulty piece.
While I was there I asked the service tech if the … airbags would still work if the light was on and he told me NONE of the airbags would have worked in a crash.
The light came back on again today so I am bringing it back to the dealership to have it fixed for a second time. This is not some thing that I find acceptable in a 2 1/2 year old car.
Make a mistake going from my Tahoe to this
Anna S, Mansfield, TX, 08/16/2015
2011 Buick Enclave CXL1 4dr SUV (3.6L 6cyl 6A)
I gave up my Tahoe to go to this because my two older children had moved out of the house and I did not need such a large vehicle.
I intended on keeping this car for many years and giving it my daughter when she started driving. It has been in the shop with so many
issues we now intend on trading it in next year and going back to a Tahoe. We have had problems from the motor mount, the … drive train,
the axle bearings and several other things. Thank goodness we had bought an extended warranty so we have not had much out of pocket
cost. The Buick dealership has been very nice and apologetic about all the problems. It is a comfortable car but it is not as comfortable as
I feel it should be.
Do Not Buy a Buick
Leaks, Houston, TX, 12/16/2015
2011 Buick Enclave CXL1 4dr SUV (3.6L 6cyl 6A)
2011 Buick Enclave with 113,000 miles: A/C has never worked properly, the car body leaks water into the interior when it rains, the suspension is noisy, the car has been in the shop multiple times with less than crappy support from the local dealer but I see where that customer care support comes from when I called the Buick hot line and was a given a number to document our call with no … resolution to the problem.
