At 100,000. miles our 2 1/2 year old vehicle had the transmission go out. While it was being fixed by GM dealership the power steering went out. They had it for 26 days. They said it was fixed but power steering went back out the day we got it back. They also said there was a wheel bearing noise. We took it to a different GM dealership then. They said the power steering was shot and the noise we were hearing was the transfer case. They fixed the problems. But the power steering has a small short vibration when turning the steering wheel. They kept it longer to figure it out. Then they said that the steering gear was bad. Said it would be fixed 2 days ago. They still have it. Have not driven it but one day since beginning of September. It is October 12th 2019 at the moment. Maybe I will update this when we finally get it back. Have had different loaner cars. This 2019 Blazer is an awesome race car!

Unfortunately, I had to rate this gem a 2 because of all the issues I had. I absolutely loved the features of this suv in regards to luxury and comfort but nothing but issues. Fist known issues were the brakes. At 50,000miles needed all new brakes, pads and rotors. I always felt like I was "slamming" on my brakes just to stop. Needed a new battery at 80,000miles. Died on me several times after battery was replaced. MAJOR ISSUE: I had water leaking out from underneath my dashboard ! I was told maybe it was a plug in my sunroof drain, as the tubes run under the dash but it was never fixed? MAJOR ISSUE: One day I had just shut my car off, as I thought but it was still running, that's right, keys out of the ignition, engine still running and drivable! My car was literally running "on" for 45 minutes to an hour with no keys in it. INSANE! Finally shut itself off. I let the suv sit for an hour after. Started right up and was able to make it home however the radio would not turn on. Next day, nothing, would even turn over at all. Couldn't even unlock it! Put my keys in the ignition and then I couldn't get them out! Had it towed for the second time...started right up at the dealership! CRAZY! If I were to diagnose an issue with this suv I would say its electrical which is next to impossible to find the fix let alone the solution. Among talking to other Buick Enclave owners, the sunroof issues was present in theirs as well, as well as major engine/transmission issues right about 60,000miles. Honestly, I'm very upset because I absolutely loved my Enclave. It was sharp looking, drove very nice, and very affordable. But beware of these issues. Traded in at 94,000miles, Hadn't even put on 50,000 miles, not even owned for a year :(

When compared to other similar vehicles in it's class the 2016 Enclave is a good car for spaciousness, ease in loading people & cargo. I am happy I purchased this vehicle.
