BEST VEHICLE I HAVE EVER OWNED!

Update: 12/5/2020 - I have had my Enclave for almost 2 years. It has 30k miles on it and I still love it just as much as the day I got it! It has been a great vehicle. Had to have two of the electronic components repaired, but both completely covered under warranty. The transmission and drive train have worked flawlessly! The vehicle rides so smoothly and is so quiet! Still very happy with my purchase. This vehicle is such a pleasant surprise! Did extensive research as I was transitioning from 13 years in a mini-van. Was looking for a mid-size SUV with all of the bells and whistles, but could also fit my family of 5, which includes 3 teenagers, plus my 80lb Lab. I drove the Toyota Highlander, Volvo XC90, Subaru Ascent, Ford Explorer, GMC Acadia and Honda Pilot and I knew as soon as I drove this it was the car for me. It was the last car I drove because I was trying to stay away from GM, but I tell you what! GM has really upped their game with this vehicle. It is a Luxury vehicle at a reasonable price and pretty good warranty (4yrs/50k). Do yourselves a favor and go drive one! I have put 5k miles on it in 3 months. It rides so smoothly and quiet! Don’t love the shifter and the manual shades for the sun roof, and the door storage is kind of useless, but those are minor in the grand sceme of things and definitely not dealbreakers. Everything else makes up for it! I love this SUV!

Avenir not worth the extra price tag

We bought the Avenir for some of the luxury and convenience features. Most of them we have since disabled because they either created a very intrusive (and unsafe) driving experience or were awkward to use. The "hands free" lift gate at the back works only sporadically - it is much faster to just open it with the button - so this feature doesn't get much use either. One of the most disappointing things has been cheap material covering the sun roof. This fastens loosely resulting in a lot of rattling and road noise. So we drive around in our expensive "luxury" car with a tissue stuffed up under the sun roof to prevent it from rattling. Overall, I like the car - but would never recommend stepping up to the Avenir trim. It is just not worth the extra money. And avoid the sun roof - it just feels cheap and it's noisy.

A Surprisingly Great Ride & experience

Purchased my 2019 Buick Enclave and have owned for over 60 days. Love the technology, the surround view camera, back up camera, carplay and the ability to respond hands free to incoming texts or calls. I tour clients as part of my job and several without prompting have said WOW this is a very nice, quiet vehicle. When I have told them is a Buick they have said,Really? Well they got it right! The amenities hold their own with other higher priced vehicles. I traded a mercedes suv and although the mercedes might have had a few more creature comforts and softer plastic finishes the Buick is proving more reliable and a more comfortable experience. There is always someone who can be negative but my experience with the 2019 Buick Enclave has exceeded my expectations. Do yourself a favor and test drive one I think you will be pleasantly surprised.

First let it be known that I am a 22 year old male.. certainly not the traditional Buick customer. I lucked into getting this car for a 7-day rental period, and was incredibly impressed. Over the course of the week I put on approximately 1100 miles and found the new Enclave to be fantastic in terms of comfort, gas mileage (avg 25mpg in mixed driving), and performance. Additionally, I have a fair bit of experience with a 2012 Enclave that my mother had previously owned. Without question, the 2019 blows the older model away in every aspect. In fact, if I choose to shop for a newer SUV in the future, I would be taking a very serious look at a new Buick.

The best things about the new Enclave are outside and especially the interior styling. The interior is not cluttered and the fit and trim is great. the Transmission is smooth and all negative about the reverse on the stick it silly. It takes one time putting in reverse and you have mastered it. Super quiet on the road. Infotainment is the best. Essence has most what you need if you don't want to spend on every bell and whistle. Yes there are a few little short cummings like no light in the glove box. But the pluses out weight nit picking some small things as a lot of reviews seem to do. The LED head lamps are great and boy I can finally see at night. The V6 give you plenty of power i don't need to go from 0 to 60 in 4 seconds. I was most surprised by the drive and handling. It really hides the bumps and rocks that I was use to feeling in another 2017 Buick I had. You must check the Enclave. I think you will be surprised and roomy is what I need at 6'4.

Noise from exhaust pipe

With just 3M miles on this car we began to hear noise coming from under the car when you first start it up. Took it to a GM dealer and was told there was a defected exhaust pipe and clamp that was making the noise. Its been three weeks now and the parts have not come to the dealer at this time . Dealer says it's because of the strike. BS. Nice car other than can't get it fixed, and it drives my wife nuts.

2019 Enclave Avenir

I like my vehicle so far. It’s pretty refined with a nice quite ride and features. I agree with the comments about t(e auto stop. It cause the vehicle to lunge a bit when the engine restarts. There should be an option. In the infotainment to turn it off in my opinion. Not sure I understand the logic not to give the owners this option.
SUPRISE PURCHASE

I initially went in looking for an Acadia. The salesperson Gus was very attentive and asked me a lot of questions about my want and needs. In the end I tried the Buick Enclave and loved it. It is roomy and comfortable and best of all the gas milege is good. Love my new Buick!

After driving a Denali I am almost in tears every time I get into my 2019 Buick Enclave. I've had it 3 months and it's rattling in the dash, and a piece of the exterior trim molding had come off. If this is any inclination of what I have to look forward to, the future's not looking too bright. I was a complete idiot for trading my Denali. The sales person said "Buick's are good cars, built to last, they hold their value." Yeah right, they can't even hold themselves together.
