Nice but horrible City/Hwy combo gas mileage

The car rides great, interiors really nice, I like the overall features. Have had the car since July(now Oct) and I am getting horrible gas mileage. With a City/Hwy combo every day to/from work I average 12 miles to the gallon. It is so sad to watch....and fill up the tank. The dealer advised to give it to 5K before engine is broken in, but I am not too optimistic - and may be looking to trade it in for that alone. Update 4/10/16. Still nice car but gas mileage horrible in a real city, not suburb city where car manf measures gas mileage.

No cell phones in Front Seat

Updated review: I will never buy a GM Product again based on my experience with customer service and incompetent technology. How would a buyer know if you could have a cell phone or a large drink (in the cup holder) in the front seat? The service notices are not easily available to buyer. I now drive a Lexus. And behold the phone and the iPad and the laptop do not interfere with the seatbelt or air bag deployment. The seat belt alarm keeps going off in my 2012 Enclave. The dealer gave me a service notice ID 3120743/ 08-09-41-0071. This states that any electronic device in the front seat or audio cords or large drinks will cause the seat belt alarm to ping. This is NOT TO BE REPAIRED. If you want a cell phone, iPad or audio cord in the front you have to click the seat belt. GM can not give me any assurance that with said interference the air bags will deploy. GM Customer Service stated "The Vehicle is designed to do that" REALLY? I don't think so. They inadequately shielded the module and now don't want to fix it.

Sunroof leaks

V6 lacks power, especially on hilly terrain. Sunroof has leaked entire first year of ownership. Apparently Buick unwilling or unable to correct. And the dealer, Carl Black, did ZERO to accommodate. Traded the piece of crap in for a Ford after one year.
