Constantly in for repair

We purchased a 2013 Enclave in 2016 with ~49K miles. We've consistently been spending money to repair this vehicle. Twice, the dashboard lights start flickering, the dashboard goes black, and the vehicle dies. Both instances of this didn't not register any computer codes, mechanics at the dealership had to guess at the problems, and it took 3 tries to get it fixed. Additionally, the AC requires recharging every summer, twice. These issues represent only some of the times we've taken this vehicle in for repairs over 3 years with costs now exceeding $5000. Forums suggest we are not the only Enclave owners struggling with this.

Transmission failed at 120k

After 120k this vehicle has cost more then it's worth. Transmission needed replaced, squeaks everywhere. Terrible choice for a vehicle if you're looking for long term usage.

They have air conditioning problems around 60,000 miles. Other than a thousand for that I am very happy with it

My wife and I were in search of a 7-passenger vehicle and searched high and low. In the end, the refreshed Enclave offered everything we were looking for.
