Vehichle was driven this morning. This afternoon, same doggone problem. Have'nt tried it this evening. Too disgusted!.

After not driving my 2008 Buick Enclave for 3 days, when I tried to start it the battery was completely dead and I couldn't get the key out of the ignition. I had to have it jump started, after just 9,000 miles on it. Apparently, after doing some quick internet searches, this is a wide-spread problem with the Buick Enclaves.

If we don't drive our 2009 Buick Enclave every few days, the battery goes completely dead and we have to charge it to even get the key out of it. The dealership service department looked at it and said the battery is fine but there is a "bulletin" (but not a recall) about a "parasitic power draw" problem in these vehicles and they will let us know when they have a repair available. In the meantime, we are to make a point to run our Enclave every few days.

Recurring dead battery.

Nothing unusual, all power turned off; first two times, battery near-dead when started, then completely dead after turning key in ignition several times. Third time, key would not come out until battery was recharged.
