Sinking floor
I love my car. I feel great driving it. It handles so well.
Great Vehicle
Bought a month ago, so far great vehicle. Bought Cocoa Mist FWD CXL-2, hard color to find. DVD player works great for the kids, seats move easily (my 5 year old can move them). ONstar is a great feature. Fuel economy could be better,but it's exactly what the sticker says, so really can't complain. Couple of snows so far and it has performed as well as our Jeep. We are starting to see why we are seeing more and more of these on the roads and know why.

From S Class to Enclave
We purchased a brand new S430 in 2003 and I started 2010 with looking at all our options for a new car. We needed more seating but were not willing to give up that luxury feel. My husband and I went in to test drive a Denali and the salesman showed us the Enclave. My husband, family and I realized this was the perfect car for our family of 7. The 7 passenger, sliding seating is so functional & the styling and comfort are on par with Mercedes. Having spent $80000.00 on the Mercedes, we felt spending $46000.00 on the fully loading AWD Enclave was a bargain. We are so proud to be driving American!
Well rounded family vehicle
As a family of 5, we had a base Nissan Armada which we liked, but decided we needed more features and better gas mileage. Looked at CX9 among others. The look of the Enclave beats all- comers in our opinion. The technology is extensive and the warranty is solid. Only had it a short while, but very happy so far. Only issue is idle is set so low, it can roll back a bit on inclines when taking off if you delay hitting the gas - simple awareness addresses the issue and it likely lends to the decent fuel economy. Super quiet. During delivery we did not know it was running while sitting in it. Drives smoothly.
Good Enough for Seconds
Just traded my '08 Enclave on a new '10 model. Looks exactly the same, handles the same, and is just as pleasurable as the '08. I put 50K miles on the first one, and enjoyed every one of them. Three round trips between Idaho and my winter home in Florida, and I'm looking forward to the next one. I've owned a lot of new cars - BMW, Porsche, Nissan, Chrysler, Ford and GM - and the Enclave is by far the best yet.
Buick Enclave does NOT disappoint!
Spacious seating and cargo storage. 3 row seating with 2nd row captains chairs make easy in/out to the back seats.

Comfortable car, but too many problems!!
Within 6 months I had A/C problems(on vacation), got that fixed($1,000). Then power steering pump went bad($1200) for that. Then had electrical problems in driver door and can’t roll down windows or lock doors. Cost $2500 as just an estimate, may cost more. These cars are junk!!! Look for something else.

Great Crossover
Quiet, responsive and top notch quality throughout.
Great vehicle all around
Have just purchased 2 weeks ago but have found the vehicle to be very comfortable and fun to drive. Ride is very smooth and it handles with ease. Has all the conveniences needed as well as safety built in which is a plus as my wife in the normal driver.
I lUV MY VEHICLE
I absolutely love my new Enclave. The rear backup camera on the rear view mirror is an absolute delight. It is so much easier to look in the mirror than down at a navigation screen. There are so many things that makes this a great vehicle to have. Granted, I've only had it a few days now, but I can't say anything negative about it. It's very classy and I see people's head turn when I drive by. The only negative thing I can say is about how expensive it was to purchase...but nevertheless, I'm pleased!
Great car for the whole family
We really love our new Buick Enclave. It is a really comfortable and quiet ride. The DVD player with Wireless headphones is great. We can listen to music while the kids are watching a movie. The inside of this SUV is almost as roomy as a minivan. The Kids can actually stand up in the back. There is still room for storage in the trunk with the third row seats up.
Don't want to get out of it!
Handles quite nicely. Rides like a dream. Quiet and smooth. Found fuel economy reasonable. Sound system great. Nice looking vehicle, very classy at a reasonable price. Looking forward to at least ten years with this vehicle. Still have my Montana van, which is ten years old. Love my Clave.
Buick Enclave
Poor gas mileage(14/20)miss the keyless entry buttons. Other than that, nice ride with plenty of passenger and cargo room.
Mature Owner's Critique
Did not care for 20" wheels when I first saw the vehicle, first thought-OMG, they are huge! After 6 weeks and not much choice I like them. Been 9 years since I bought a new car so subjected to lots of techie changes, especially the Navigation Package that had not been updated to my State so getting weird directions. Overall I find the vehicle overpowering with use of Plastic, even the grill; I'm sure this is done to reduce weight & cost. The interior is where my major complaints are: Cannot position steering wheel for clear view of dash, "Driver's Info Center" no compass or Instant Mileage Indicator, Clock too small, no digital speed, no secure gas cap, no glove compartment lite.
great crossover SUV
We love this car. Did extensive research on minivans, Traverse etc over 1 month of daily reviews and testing. Great upgrade from lower models, better space than 2 row high end costlier SUV such as BMW and lexus. Great if you have 3 kids or more.
Amazingly Quiet
We purchased the Enclave because we often drive from Los Angeles to Las Vegas, and need something more comfortable for the long drive. We are amazed on how quiet and comfortable it is. The engine is very strong and never has to struggle to go up the hills. Passing is very easy as well. You only have to press the accelerator lightly to get a quick response.
Enclave - Room to Roam
The Ladies Love the Enclave, which replaces a 2010 Toyota Highlander (Wife worried/daughter new driver/TRUST was not there) Glad to be back in a US car. There is room for my ___ and all the other stuff we haul. Ride is smooth, peppy and confident with appropriate credit to the Enclave's Wide Stance. Trim and fit are excellent. Quiet ride. Exterior appearance is great. One trip so far and it was enjoyable but would like a little more driver leg room.
Quiet and comfortable
As comfortable and quiet as our Lexus RX with more room. Love the seating and the Navigation/Audio system. Bluetooth hands free phone very convenient. Fuel economy near low end of city/hwy range and it doesn't have the pickup of the Lexus. Of course, it's also 10k less than Lexus. Never had OnStar before and it's a definite plus with downloadable directions to Nav system. Love the black exterior but only when it's clean.
Only 16 MPG
Love the car just do not love the MPG it is giving me. I know it is a heavier car but they should at least give you 18 MPG. Extra weight hurts. Turning on the A/C hurts. If I do both, it only give me 15 MPG. how sad. It looks great exterior and interior, but the MPG are horrible. They should do better.
Amazing
Overall amazing SUV. Ride is very comfortable, holds a lot of people/luggage. Friends still can't believe how nice and luxurious it feels inside. The articulating headlights are amazing--make this car look like a spaceship when starting at night.
Buick Enclave
After owning my Enclave for only 2 months, it went into lock down mode, i had to have it towed to the nearest dealership. I was 1 hour away from home and this was very inconvienent. onstar got a tow service quite fast and found out after 3 days in the shop that there was a short in the wiring behind the passenger seat..The battery is hidden inside of the vehicle and that is also a big problem. On a positive note, I do enjoy driving the vehicle and love the way it looks. I think it is well made and pray that i don't have any more problems like this one again...
Buick Enclave
Extremely happy with this vehicle thus far. Initially, I laughed at my wife when she brought this vehicle to my attention as a long term family vehicle, plus its a "Buick". Time will tell if Buick has truly revamped this brand and if they can compete with the long term reliability of Lexus, Toyota, and Honda. For now we are extremely happy with the interior and exterior luxury and features.
Great
This Enclave was delivered with no flaws. Excellent. Good power. 23 mpg on the road is very nice. Drives well in bad weather--snow, ice and wet. Great traction. The ride is both elegant and handling is responsive (surprising so)-- even on mountain curves. The comfort makes cross country trips easy. Love the tight turning radius. It's a keeper.
Just as Good as My Excellent 2008
Had a 2008 and this one is just as good. Like the handling, performance and quality. It seems to turn a lot of heads for a car that is not really a new model. Many people complain of fuel mileage. I get 18-19 overall and 22.6 at 75 MPH. I doubt that many cars this big that will haul 7 with comfort will do this good.
