This car is larger than most so called midsize SUV's. Electronics at this trim level may be intimidating. You won't be able to instantly use all features without reading the owner's manual,...several times. There are very few features the cares does not have. It's loaded. The only complaint so far with the electronics is the navigation system. It doesn't understand my southern dialect. Half the time I have to manually key in destinations as opposed to speaking them. I hope that time will enable the system to learn my voice. Creature comforts are impeccable. Seats are a little stiff compared to my Town Car but I expect them to loosen up over time. Leg room is the best out there, bar none, particularly the second row seating. Even the third row seating is adequate for relatively short trips. Noise levels are on a par with most luxury cars, quiet. Power is adequate for a vehicle this size but will not snap any necks. So far, fuel economy is on the low end of the manufacturer's estimate, about 16 around town, 18 overall. I have only achieved 20 on the highway. so far I like the car very much.

Still loving this Enclave for all the same reasons listed on my previous reviews! Buick really put this SUV together with much thought and the timeless values and features people appreciate in a car like this. Solid, confident, smooth, hushed ride on the road. Wonderful space. Controls and amenities are placed intuitively in the cabin. Driver's perch just right. Spacious feeling behind the wheel - open. A pleasure to drive. I've had many people tell me "what a sharp car". It is very stylish for an SUV with the 20 inch wheels and front lighting. Wish the engineers could help carve out more mpg's - but this is a large, heavy vehicle. Back up camera very convenient and I would highly recommend the blind spot alert that I have. IMHO, this needs to be a mandate on all cars these days. Beautiful feature. As I have said before, BRAVO, BUICK!!! I could not be happier!!!!

My wife and I are really sold on the Buick Enclave. We bought 2010 New and liked it so much we purchased a 2015 New. We have decided to purchase a New Enclave every five years in order to keep up with the technology. The car is just the right size, gives a feeling of security and luxury plus it is very dependable.

Where does my oil go and what are these noises???

The engine is using / losing oil. I have approximately 50,000 miles on the vehicle. At 46,000 my "low oil" light came on. Sure enough - the oil barely registered on the dipstick. The dealership told me that I need to have my oil changed more often, even though I have it changed religiously and have NEVER been overdue. They also told me that the owner's manual instructs that customers must check the oil at every fuel fill up. (Shifting the blame to me?) Here I am - 3000 miles later - and about to take a road trip. I checked my oil and it barely registers on the dip stick. Apparently I am driving a $40,000 vehicle that has an engine that burns oil. There are no oil leaks on my garage floor, so it must be going somewhere. We will be taking my daughter's 2009 Pontiac on our road trip because I feel safer with us going far from home in that. There is also a LOUD bang in the back floor. I have taken it in and they "can't find it". The repair tech could hear the noise when I called in to schedule the repair using Blue Tooth - it's that loud! How can they not find metal banging together. A waste of money. I recommend purchasing a different vehicle.

I did a lot of research before checking out this SUV in 2015. I wanted to lease an SUV to fit my bicycle inside, that's decent looking and under $5,000 per year on average (excluding gas, etc.). This car fit the bill with the massive discounts applied, so I went in to check it out. It is comfortable, and actually was cheaper than all other SUVs of similar stature (leather interior and AWD with navigation), even cheaper than the lower tier brands like Ford, Honda, and Toyota. All the seats are comfortable. I had it for a 39 month lease, and returned it to get a fun car. I would have kept it if I had space for an extra car and it didn’t depreciate to less than the buy off value- all because it just fits so much stuff!
