Battery Dead Problems of Buick Enclave

Left my house it was fine. I stopped and turned it off and waited for my family member to come out of an appt. I tried to start the vehicle and wouldn't turn over and only clicked like the battery was dead,it also wouldn't let me remove the key. Then I got a jump start and it started right up. After I was home I tried starting again and it did. I just don't trust it now.

Two month old battery went dead. Discovered water surrounding the battery and soaked all under carpeting on floor boards. Warranty is expired and since I am a widow on fixed income can not take it to Buick as they charge exorbitant prices for problems that should be covered and not happen. Aaa driver said there appears to be a seal someplace near battery that has come off letting water come up through the underside and collect around battery .

The air conditioner does not work most of the time. Once in a while cold air will come out but the majority of the time it does not work at all. It seems to have started when my car battery died and I had it jumped to start it.

As we were driving around a dark curve on a well traveled country road, the car quit pulling, the battery died, and the car would not shift. We were unable to move the car and were in the dark. There were two adults and two children in the car at the time. We had to call a wrecker to pick up the car and a deputy sheriff to direct traffic and keep from being hit by oncoming traffic. Apparently, the shifter broke and the transmission died. Both had to be replaced. I found out later that the transmission is the #1 complaint on this particular car. Why has a recall not been done? do lives have to be lost before something is done???.

Issue: battery not holding charge and frequently needs jump resolution: dealership verified and found that battery had bad cell. Battery replaced issue #4.

Purchased new 2009 Buick Enclave cxl fwd(3/30/09) fully loaded. 4 months later, battery died. Made 5 or more visits to gm dealership. They ran parasitic drain diagnostics over night , new upgrades installed, replaced battery twice and more than a year later, every couple of months battery dies. I think there are many people out there with this kind of problem that gm should fix the problem under a recall before some electrical catches on fire and gm will have to payout millions.

Have had the battery die 3 times in one year on the car with everything shut off etc. Also once you put the key in the car to start it and it doesn't start, the key won't come out.

New 2008 Buick Enclave, the battery went dead after not being driven for 6 days. Buick told me I need to drive the car at lest every 3 days to prevent this. Battery was jumped and car started fine. I can't live with a car that needs to be driven every 3 days.
