Had hoped buying GM that this was a great vehicle.

Poor quality have put over 3,000 dollars so far and now I have transmission problems would have been better to buy foreign vehicle instead of domestic.

Amazing, roomy & comfy!!

We just purchased a used 2011 Buick Enclave and I am in LOVE!! It is roomy, quiet, quick, smooth and so far one of the best cars I have owned!! It is so comfortable it is like sitting on a sofa while riding on a cloud!! When I am ready for a new vehicle I am going to buy another one!! My husband is considering getting a matching one we love it so much!

So much negative press for such a great ride

We have owned our Enclave for the last 8 years, we are now at 213000 miles, aside from maintaining it we have had zero problems.

Very luxurious dependable vehicle

Very luxurious dependable family car has all bells and whistles. Only thing really known for going out on this model is timing chains but thank god for a Powertrain warranty I would never go without it.

Best car I?ve owned, Seats 7 with extra room

Vehicle is very dependable, sporty, classy, luxurious, eye catcher, has all the bells and whistles, it?s loaded and well maintained. A great used car for mom, dad, grandparents and comfortable for long and short trips. Gets 19-25 mph.

Best car I ever owned

Comfort and reliablity. Drove it on multiple 3000 mile trips, sometimes with a trailer, and it was up for the drive and comfortable for us. Mo issues with the vehicle.

It had all the luxuries of a Cadillac expensive.

Lots of room. Seats fold down flat. Very comfortable. I loved the compartments in back. Rear entertainment has headphones for kids. Drives smooth. Very luxurious.

Nice looking suv

This SUV is wonderful. It is very stylish very dependable and very reliable. The three role of seats give you plenty of room to store or transport almost anything. No matter where you're going or how you're dressed you will look good and feel good getting out of this vehicle.
