2008 Buick Enclave consumer reviews

Great ride/suspension and good features. Very unreliable, at the 110k mark transmission broke, a lot of people are reporting transmission issues around that same millage range, Buick should have recall them. Before that the rack and pinion, the power steering pump and the water pump broke, only the water pump was covered by a recall. Everything else I had to pay out of my pocket. I should have buy the Maxda CX-9 back then. I bougth a Mazda 3 2009, 11 years later and a 190k miles no engine nor transmission issues. I learned my lesson and replaced the Buick with a 2019 Mazda CX-9

Buy this car if you enjoy spending money on it constantly. EVERYTHING will end up going in this vehicle, things you never thought you'd never have to replace you will end up replacing. If you share this car with a spouse be aware that the seat motor will stop working and hopefully it stops in a spot that fits at least one of you. I can complain about my car all day and have even had to take a 2nd job To pay for the repairs because they're constant. If youre looking at buying this vehicle my advise to you is DONT!!!!!

This is a very ( there's that word every one seems to like to use). Handsome, Comfortable, quiet, easy to handle vehicle one of the few vs quiet a number of others I've owned. It just surpasses the 98 SAAB 9.5 and the 2013 Dodge Dart. That I've owned in the past. My SAAB matched the Dart in the fact that both had turbos in them so they both had that nice growl to them when you accelerated. But in the same point it was a noisy engine. Where as the Enclave is So Quiet your almost surprised that it's actually running. ( Unless you gun the gas LOL ) It is of course larger than either of the other two I mentioned. So I'm still trying to get used to having to insure I have pulled all the way up into a parking lane BUT back to the basics. There's not much that I can add thats not already been said I've only had mine for a few days. So I really have not had time to find any negatives with it as I'm still discovering all the nice things about it. I will say it is one of the best choices I THINK that one could make if your looking to step up from a conventional 4 door to something slightly bigger, but still feels like one. I enjoy having an SUV and I recommend the Buick Enclave.

Gm should fix there problems been known for a cheap wave plate in tranny now 4k to get fixed rear lift gate known for leaking

Friendly service and knowledgeable. Ryan Shippy made my transition into my Buick Enclave an easy one. I would recommend anyone looking for a new car to go see Ryan. A+ for Ryan.

Great luxury and lots of room for 7 people awesome futures great ride good on gas the only bad thing is food shopping you have to put one or both back seats down

This combination of SUV with a minivan space and seating along with all the options is just perfect. The elegant/luxury interior with all the electronics and the fashionable exterior with adaptable lights , towing power combination is just really the perfect family style car.

bought mine used with 68000 miles. the transmission goes out at 82000. thankfully it came with power train warranty. so my cost was 200 bucks not 4000. wastpump slso went at about 100000. now chasing sensor lights for about everything . fix one then another.... never ever buy one again.

Very comfortable vehicle but it is going to be a major drain on your free cash. Had the transmission rebuilt at 93K. Very comfy but I don't trust it to drive out of towns since it is a mechanical xxx.

Ive had multiple cars within my life but the buick enclave is by far the best car ive ever purchased. Its got the three rows which fit my entire family, beautiful wood grain, sunroof, drives so smooth. Its definetly a luxurious vehicle and ive never been happier.
