Without incident or cause, our 2008 Enclave began leaking an excessive amount of water onto the passenger and driver's side floor boards. Only by online searching have I found that these leaks are most likely coming from inadequate drain tubes or other component of the sunroof. Our local GMC / Chevrolet dealership has completely brushed us off and refused to honor extended warranty or even look at the vehicle in their service department. They have sent us to local autoglass companies and a local body shop, neither of which even slowed down the leaking. At this point, I just want to get rid of this vehicle. I have two young daughters, age 3 and 4, who will undoubtedly be exposed to mold and mildew in the ventilation system of this car. Aside from this, there is no doubt that electrical problems and rust are bound to occur in the future. Buick has completely failed this consumer.

My 2008 Buick Enclave leaks and now has a mold smell inside of the vehicle. Also, the blower motor has failed twice and the car overheats without any warning. I have taken the car to the dealer and the problem continues to happen.
I own a 2008 Buick Enclave with a factory installed sunroof. I have had the vehicle back to the dealer on several occasions for excessive leaks in from the sunroof. The water collects above the headliner and when the vehicle is moved, can drain down onto the driver causing a reaction to the unexpected event. In addition, I have had water leaking from the light fixtures both over the center console and from the rear seat roof light. In looking at the Enclave owners website, this appears to be a highly common issue with the 2008 Enclave. I was advised the last time by the dealer their is a design flaw with the a pillar that causes it to clog and not drain properly. This is not only an inconvenience, but also a potential fire hazard with water leaking into electrical components in the roof, console, and dashboard. Buick has not accepted responsibility or acknowledged there is an issue with the drain condition. Vehicle has been back to the dealer at least 3 times without resolution.
The first problem that occured was the engine overheated and the water pump had to be replaced. Car was only 3 years old with 20,140 miles on it. Since then the main problems have been with the sunroof leaking. This caused the blower motor to fail. The water leaks have happened at least 4 times. The drains keep clogging. There is no fix for this according to the dealer. Not acceptable! they told me not to park under trees. Are you kidding me? I've had sunroofs before and never had a problem. The recall for the drain extensions did nothing. Eventually there will be other problems. Who knows what else is getting wet where I can't see it. Mold is inevitable. I have 3 kids and this is ridiculous. I didn't spend all this money for a piece of junk! I will never buy gm again if they don't do something.
2009 Buick Enclave cxl. Since 2010 it has leaked water from under the dashboard on the passanger side. This year we have started to notice it more when the heat came and we turned on the ac, the ac stoped working a couple of times and when I would turn my car while driving there would be water coming out from under the dashboard from the passanger side on the floor and the ac would start working again. Finally my husband took down the cover off the blower motor and when he took it down it was filled with water, he cleaned it and the motor started working again but not for long, it didn't even last 3 days and the motor blew out. Now I am without ac.
2010 Buick Enclave. Accelerator pedal causing potential accident hazard the consumer stated while parked and sitting in the vehicle, his right shoe, which was resting on the accelerator became stuck tightly to the carpeting which runs along side the center of the console that extends under the dash panel. To disengage his shoe, the consumer had to reach down and physically pull his foot free. The consumer stated his shoes had velcro straps on them and he inadvertently rested his right foot against the carpeting on the console. As the strap did not cover about an inch and quarter of the exposed hook of velcro, his shoe became firmly attached to the carpeting.
I recently bought a Buick Enclave 2008. While driving I rolled down the back windows to let some air in the next thing I heard was a terrible noise and it hurt my ears, the faster I drove the worse the noise became. I took the Enclave back to the Buick dealer and after they drove it they also heard the noise. From what they told me it is because the Enclave has a lot of air space in the rear of the vehicle and that is what cause the noise but, why does it not make the noise when, I open the driver window all the way down?? they could not answer that question. However I did find out that all of the Buicks and GMC's are built the same and make the same noise. I enjoy the Enclave but I do not like being able to open the rear windows of my Enclave. Can you help me or tell me what I can to to resolve this problem? my wife and I are both in our mid 60s and we wanted to enjoy a good vehicle. Thanks james boot.
