The ride quality and quietness are as expected in this model. The center stack controls are very simple and easy to understand and visibility is great. The only thing that gives it away as a 4-5 year old model is the poor resolution of the backup camera. Overall the interior shows minimal signs of wear considering it's used which should bode well for long term durability. In spite of all the space there really isn't anywhere to stash items in the second row- just cupholders. Only the passenger side has the tilt and slide second row which means people getting out of the third row need to exit from that side unless they are going to pass through the captain's chairs to get out. I do not like the sunshade covers which are thin and automatically open if you unlatch them. Also there is no ambient lighting at night which is surprising for the top trim.

Interior: Although the Buick Enclave has ample passenger and cargo space, it pales in comparison to even a small car for cup holders and "cubbies". The cupholders are useless because they are so small and add odd angles. Obviously the engineers never actually tried to use them. The same goes for "cubbies". The area in front of transmission joystick is so small I cannot even fit my hand in to retrieve a phone. The USB charge points are pulled forward in this same space, but when a cord is plugged in, it blocks the little access that is available. There is a space under the center console that has opening between both the driver and passenger seats. This is also hard to reach and have to be careful what you place in there so it does no fall out and under the gas or brake pedal. Also when equipped with the power fold down third row seatbacks, there is only one way to raise and lower them. The power buttons are located in the rear of the vehicle and you must open the rear liftgate to get to them. There is no other way to do this from any place else in the car or on the key FOB. Safety: This is a 7 passenger vehicle and equipped with only 6 head restraints - there is not one in the middle 3rd row seat. Transmission: We purchased with only 25,000 miles and began noticing there is a shudder in transmission when accelerating from a stopped position.

Roomy and comfortable 7 passenger SUV. (2018) took as a rental with <19,000 miles. Plenty of power, good interior materials and fit and finish, good looking car inside and out. Motor hesitated, uncertain if someone had fed it bad fuel or it’s an engine/transmission issue. “Cutesy” shifter adds a learning level that’s unnecessary, adds no value over traditional shifter. Navigation system was horrible, not intuitive at all and didn’t switch to the map after hitting “go” but left up radio buttons or other clutter. I really wanted to like the car, but the horrible nav/media system is a deal breaker.
