Example complaints

“Possible electrical short? Fuel gauge dropped over an eighth of a tank when just filled it up and drove 2 miles home. Next time I started it up it displayed the aforementioned. Has done this a few times now. Also service airbag light has come on intermittently prior to fuel gauge issue and now is on every time. Called Buick and they acknowledge that it has been a problem for that model and even year just not my VIN. Perhaps expansion of vehicles affected??? 77,000 miles”

NHTSA complaint #11187386, filed 2019-03, 77,000 miles

“The engine, power steering, stabilitrak, and reduced engine power (vehicle would essentially die while driving at random times). My safety AND others were put at risk when I am traveling down the road/interstate and the engine just cuts out and am no longer able to accelerate to any speeds, causing me to have to pull over to the shoulder WITHOUT ANY ENGINE POWER. Yes, the problem has reproduced and confirmed with the dealer I purchased from. Vehicle has not been inspected by the above mentioned. Only had it inspected by the dealer I purchased the vehicle from. …”

“My Enclave gets thre worst gas mileage of any vehicle I've ever owned. My 2003 trailblazer gets better gas mileage than this SUV by almost double and it's not very fuel efficient. My boyfriend's v8 silverado also gets about 50% better gas milage. Ive brought it in multiple times and they keep saying they can't find an issue bc the computer isn't flagging any issues. The driver side shock that wad replaced has also already went bad with no reason and the passenger side wheel wobbles when reversing out if a parking space. This again was checked and they denied finding any issues. …”

“The vehicle began shuddering and losing power during normal driving. The issue occurs at various speeds, especially between 35–60 mph, and feels as though the car is slipping or will stall. A certified service center diagnosed a failing torque converter, which is part of the transmission/power train. The repair estimate was several thousand dollars. This failure poses a safety risk because the vehicle can suddenly lose acceleration or struggle to move in traffic. The service center confirmed the defect but stated there is no recall or assistance from Buick or GM. …”
