Failed component is the front sun roof window The shattering of the glass sounded like a bullet coming through the roof of the car. Sprayed me with glass from the implosion. I was in heavy rush hour traffic. There are several complaints about the sun roof window just shattering. Not at this time. No warning or cracks in the sun roof were observed. I was driving on the Highway at 60 mph and the front sun roof window just shattered and sprayed me with glass.
Odometer Fraud. The contact purchased a 2017 Buick Enclave. The contact stated that the check engine warning light was illuminated. The contact attempted to have the vehicle serviced at the dealer, but services were declined. It was discovered that there was a mileage discrepancy. The vehicle was a dealer sale. At the time of purchase, the vehicle mileage was 92,000, and at the time of obtaining a Carfax report, it was discovered that the mileage was 95,015. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic for service, but was not repaired. The State Attorney General was contacted, but no additional assistance was provided.
Responded to a Recall notice on passenger air bag in August 2025. Have had vehicle to GM dealership many times. They can't fix it. And won't call me back. Have called Buick direct and they are also having trouble with the dealership. But the service employees at Buick have been very helpful. This is a safety issue and haven't driven my Buick much since August. I'm elderly and feel i may be being abused. Thanks for any help.

Shortly after purchasing my 2017 enclave premium around 60000 I noticed a problem that felt like vehicle's tires were skipping when making sharp turns. Upon my own extensive research (as I didn’t have time money and couldn’t go won’t vehicle) discovered a clutch pack needed replaced. This is after replacing the battery and brakes nit even a month after buying. Later after taking it for an oil change I received a report stating the rear differential was cracked and power steering rack needed replaced. While driving in rush hour traffic one day all power steering was lost with no explanation. Still having problems with tire pressure monitor replacing multiple tire stems and tires. Won’t start after filling with gas or is stuck in crank position trying to start when it finally dies it wants to stall out. Currently headlights are flickering with no known cause. Oh and the driver heated seat stopped working right after purchase. I’m at a huge loss with repairs costing more than the worth of a vehicle that continues to have serious issues even after fixing the problem it seems to repeat itself. Owe too much to trade in. All these problems are known to occur I cannot believe this isn’t a lemon or recalled parts. If not in enclave same thing happens in similar vehicles made by sane manufacturers during the same years. I will never purchase another GMC nor purchase from Toyota who failed to help after purchase.

It's been over a year since the recall was issued and still no fix? This has affected my ability to sell the vehicle.
GM (Buick) issued this recall over a year ago In spite of numerous phone calls, e-mails, there is no remedy in sight and I have to wonder if GM intends to follow through with a remedy for this issue or just ignore it and run out the clock with no fear of any repercussions for them. Do Fed regulations really have any teeth in them to provide incentive for GM to care about their customers. The dealers are caught in the middle and at the mercy of GM. I'm sure this is an industry problem and gets very little media attention. I guess it's a case of ignore it and it will go away.
I have a recall on my vehicle due to unsafe airbags. It has been over a year and Buick is still not making replacements. Not only am I driving an unsafe vehicle but I am currently unable to sell my vehicle. This is a very bad situation and I wish to complain to NHTSA about the danger to me and my passengers.

Recall is over 1 year old now with no viable solution from manufacturer. This timeframe is not acceptable to resolve a safety issue.

There has been a recall on the driver's side airbag for over one year and the remedy is still incomplete. The potential to be injured or killed by the airbag rupturing is happening on a daily basis. Some sort of fix should have been available in a year's time.

There is a current recall on my 2017 Buick Enclave. The front-driver airbag inflator may contain a supplier manufacturing defect that may result in inflator rupture during deployment. An inflator rupture may cause metal fragments to pass through the airbag and into the vehicle interior, which may result in injury or death to vehicle occupants. I have tried to get this fixed but the dealer tells me they cannot get parts!

It’s an absolutely unreasonable period of time to fix an airbag defect, I don’t feel safe at all driving this car. What is the government doing about this?

I had taken to Alpena Mi.Buick GMC address 133 Johnson St Alpena Mi. 49707. When the warning come up on the message center on the dash [XXX] That said service side detection system and in the side mirrors each side light up all the time and would cost $875.00 installed at that time had to pay $80.19 inspect and advise. At that time was unable to afford that cost to have fixed. So with those light on in your mirrors it was a unsafe to drive in daylight hours and worse in night time driving so we had to limit our driving because of this and both my wife and myself are on disability.. It was a distraction and made for unsafe travel for ourselves and for other drivers on the roads. We were able to afford on [XXX] and at time was taken back to. The same dealership for repair at that time they installed the side detection Kit cost was $812.66 which was less then the original cost. Question number 2 With this lights on in your mirrors at all times when we would be driving day and night it was a big distraction that you never would know if someone was in the next lane to you on two lane road or on the interstate. So each person was at risk in our vehicle as well as other vehicles. Question number 3 Yes that was confirmed by Alpena Buick GMC the dealer I had taken the car to back on [XXX] . Question number 4 As far as it being a GM dealer and being a GM part I would say yes. Question 5 yes as I told you in Question 1 it had on the message center in dash Service Side Detection as well as lights on in both mirrors. In my words this is a reason this should be a recall first for people that are driving and can't afford to have fixed this is a accidents waiting to happen with death please do a recall.
