general problems of the 2012 Buick Enclave

Transmission needs replacing.

My car has shut off multiple times , electrical shorts, intermittent no start, intermittent misfires all the time but randomly , injector codes even when replaced and injectors are good , yes come check out my vehicle no shops can find out what's the problem practically the whole front end has been replaced and problems still happening it is congruent with a recall but shows nothing from VIN.

If any warning light comes on such as my add air to a tire (it always tells me the wrong tire), all of the warning lights start flashing. Things shut off (radio, dash lights, backup camera) and sometimes the car will shut completely down and come back on. I am afraid to drive very far.

My truck started to jerking while I was driving. When I went in the dealership to get a piece for my inter rim was missing. Started the truck. Went into reverse. When I started in drive wouldn't move forward. Haven't had any problems until today. I had to leave it at the dealership for a diagnostic. .

Power liftgate is not working. It collapsed on my wifes back after she had opened it to get groceries.

Power liftgate motor is not working. When the liftgate was opened manually after the power lift did not work a loud clanking ensued.

My 2012 Buick Enclave started having problems on Feb. 14th. I was driving my daughter to school and all of the sudden the car chimed about 3 times (almost like the seatbelt sound) � then all the sudden the dashboard read the following: 1. Engine power is reduced 2. Service traction control 3. Service stabilitrak 4. The engine light comes on at the same time, the engine power is so low that I had to literally floor it, it wasn't even going 5 miles an hour, it was hard to steer and the brakes were hard to operate --- all power functions greatly reduced. Then the engine idles hard. . Read more...

When filling up the vehicle with gas, it is flooding the engine. . . There is also another issue that when you turn off your vehicle and the key is out of the ignition, the car and radio still runs. . . Apparently, there is a fuse box that is causing this problem.

The switch that turns off the radio. When you open the drivers door does not work. Most of the time; without a lot jiggling.

After a battery was replaced 15 sensor circuit alarms appear, all due to loss of voltage, upon driving all but 2 resolved. The 2 remaining are the issue. They were the hvac door actuator & heater/ac door motor. Both need to be replaced. Dealer would not reimburse me,.

Tl- the contact owns a 2012 Buick Enclave. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds the vehicle stalled without warning. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 52,000. Sr.

Twice in the last 30 days our Enclave was showing low on gas (usually not an issue) but both times the car sputtered to a stop. Once it quit I lost all power steering and braking. Even after I put gas in the car, the key would not move so I was unable to start the car without a jump. Car was towed to dealership. They were unable to recreate the issue although they were unable to explain why the key would lock up in the ignition. According to Buick everything checked out fine. Based on what we are hearing on the news, this issue seems very similar to the cobalt issue. Thank you.

My car has had to be towed twice due to failure to start. It will crank then the engine light will come on and will not crank anymore. Has been at shop two times each time a week with no answer to why.

Hello, problem: front passenger side seat belt alarms with less than 5 pounds of weight on the seat. Facts: I own a 2012 Buick Enclave. I had a service clinic appointment with sterling mccall Buick at the sw freeway in houston, texas. A few days before the appointment the seat belt alarm would ding when my purse and ipad was on the seat. I weighed the items they weigh 4. 8 pounds. This is the second time I have had this issue. They replaced the module about 45 days ago. Outcome: I was forwarded gm service notice document id 31202743/#08-09-41-0071. I could not believe this notice. I am not to put any electronic devices or large drinks in the front of the car. Really? there is a usb in the dash compartment of the SUV (without a notch for the cord - rolling my eyes) and gm thinks there will not be an electronic device in the front seat? and a large drink? I really don't get the large drink thing. That is hilarious. My dealership gave me a seat belt extender to keep the thing from dinging constantly. Opinion: I think the module under seat is so frequently defective that gm has written this notice to unburden the corporation of further warranty work. They can't put a piece of aluminum foil under the seat to shield this module from interference? of course I don't know how you could shield it from the large drink threat, bounty paper towels? my concern is if there is an electronic device in the pocket or lap or at the feet of a passenger will the air bags deploy?.
