Buick Enclave

I have bought Buick Enclave 2020 (Essence ) in June 2020. after I watched your review about it and other people. I get scared about it. my wife drives it. she drives it to work every day. we have a lot of snow. it looks perfect unit now. also, I heard that it has a problem with the transition. now it is less than 3000 miles.

what do you recommend? we should keep it or upgrade it with any type of Toyota (SUV).

Well, upgrading it would be a massive financial hit. I would keep it since you already have it.

 

They do have their issues but are super comfortable, quiet, and hold up somewhat decent to the 100k mile point. If you want to sell it later down the road, that would be something to consider. But right now I'd hate for you to lose all that money trading it in so soon.

Agree with Mod_man, keep it, baby it, and DO NOT delay any kind of maintenance. I will say from what I’ve read out of GMs line up the Buick’s actually seem to be the brand that holds up the best. 


The information provided here in this community is more useful than Consumer Reports. For what it is worth this link summarizes GM Quality from the 2019 Consumer Report Survey. Result is Cadillac ranked 30th, Chevrolet ranked 25th, GMC ranked 22nd, Buick ranked 18th. Buick is the highest ranking GM division !!

thanks so much for your quick response. to be honest with you. it is very comfortable it is incredible in the road. I have Toyota Carroll and when I drive it,  I can hear the engine in my head.

i will keep it, but if I need it to go over 100k miles, what should I do? for example and I do not want to have a problem with the transition?

 

thanks so much for your previous answer 


Your best bet is to keep up with the maintenance GM recommends. That will get you the most life out of it.


The best you can do is follow the maintenance schedule from your owners manual. At the end of the day you can follow the maintenance schedule to a T but it doesn’t fix poor engineering and use of cheap parts/electronic components. As I said in my previous comment, baby that thing and don’t be hard on it whatsoever. 


Excellent advice @USAFdozerpilot

So, basically, in first 3 years you will see an huge depreciation on majority of vehicles.
