I loved my Enclave, but....

I fell in love with my 2012 Enclave when we bought it in 2014. Unfortunately it has been one big problem after another...A/C, drive train, transmission, etc. Thank goodness we bought the extended warranty. Even so, I loved this car bc it was roomy and stylish. Now it just died at 120K due to a broken fuel pump that killed the whole engine. I will miss my car--I loved the way it looked and how smoothly it drove. However, I won't be getting another one. :(

Found out after the fact, of course, from the repair shop that the enclave are notorious for transmission going, power steering pump, timing chain, and numerous other issues. My repair cost was 5000 for a vehicle I paid 8000 for a month earlier.

Great car, just traded with 130,000 miles. Never a major issue. Great for family trips even when pulling a small trailer for luggage. Served me so well that just purchased a 2018 replacement. 2018 now has 87000 miles and no issue. Waiting for 2025 redesign to purchase another.

It is direct injection motor. Do your research. Comes with known issues. Properly taken care of by a reputable dealership, it is not a problem

2012 Enclave is having transmission issues... slipping and shuddering. We also owned an Acadia before that (2010) which had to get it's transmission repaired at 80k miles. I am done buying these vehicles. Too bad, their design was perfect for our family, but a transmission should be reliable way past 100k miles! We took it on long distance family vacation trips, but since it has become so unreliable, no way we can go far from home. Time for us to look for a new manufacturer for our vacationing SUV needs. Getting difficult to buy US made vehicles.
