TUESDAY, 7/18/2017. I WAS COMING OVER A SMALL DECLINE ON LOCAL ROAD IN EAST BRUNSWICK, NJ. I APPLIED THE BRAKES AND CAME UPON THE TRAFFICS LIGHT AND TRAFFICS AHEAD AND THE VEHICLE SHOT FOREWORD. APPLYING THE BREAKS HAD NO EFFECT. IN FACT THE CAR APPEARED TO ACCELERATE. I DID NOT HAVE ENOUGH TIME TO AVOID HITTING THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME WHICH CAUSED THAT VECHILE TO HIT ANOTHER. MY VEHICLE ACCELERATED VS BRAKING WHEN APPLYING THE BRAKES. APPLYING THE BRAKE HAD NO OR LITTLE EFFECT IN SLOWING THE VEHICLE. IS THERE, OR HAS THERE BEEN, REPORTS OF SIMILAR PROBLEMS WITH ACCELERATION PROBLEMS WITH THE BUICK ENCLAVE, 2015 MODEL ?.
I was in a car accident on 10/31/2023. the air bags did not deploy and the seat belt (Pretensioners) did not engage as a result of this high impact force. Esis- General Motors inspected the vehicle and provided the crash data retrieval report, attached. There were no problems prior to the accident.
SON WAS DRIVING CAR AND THE STEERING LOCKED. VEARED OFF ROAD AFTER TURNING ONTO STREET, WENT OVER CURB ONTO SIDEWALK AND HIT LIGHT POLE AND CONCRETE BENCH, STOPPING INCHES FROM A BUILDING. CAR WAS TOTALED
MY DAUGHTER ENDED UP GETTING THE SEAT BELT TWISTED AROUND HER WAIST WHEN SHE WAS TRYING TO GET OUT. THE SEATBELT WAS LOCKED TIGHTLY AROUND HER WAIST AND SHE COULD NOT GET OUT. I TRIED TURNING OFF THE CAR, UNLOCKING THE CAR, AND PULLING THE SEAT RELEASE BUT THE SEATBELT WOULD NOT UNLOCK. WE CALLED THE LOCAL FIRE DEPARTMENT AND THE SEATBELT HAD TO BE CUT OFF.
THE SCARIEST THING AND I HAVE NEVER EXPERIENCED A SEAT BELT LOCKING TO THE POINT OF A CHILD NEARLY FAINTING BECAUSE IT WAS CHOCKING HIM AROUND THE BELLY AREA. THE MORE I TRIED TO GIVE IT LEVERAGE TO RELEASE THE LOCK THE MORE IT ROLLED IN AND WOULDN'T UNLOCK. THERE ARE NO EMERGENCY RELEASE BUTTONS. GOD FORBID THERE WAS AN ACCIDENT THERE WOULD BE NO WAY TO GET SOMEONE OUT. SCARIEST MOMENT OF MY LIFE. COPS HAD TO CUT THE SEAT BELT. I DO NOT WANT TO PUT MY KIDS IN THIS CAR AGAIN. I FEEL WITH THE WINDSHIELD AND TIRE PROBLEM ON TOP OF IT IS A VERY UNSAFE CAR TO CARRY MY PRECIOUS PRICELESS CARGO (MY KIDS AND THEIR FRIENDS)VERY DISAPPOINTED
2015 Buick Enclave put in Park, doors unlocked, got out and the vehicle moved while in park.
I had storm damage to my vehicle and needed the front headlight replaced. This was a insurance claim and it went to a local body shop as well as a GM Dealership trying to fix the problem. My vehicle is equipped with Adaptive Forwarding Headlights that turn with my steering wheel. Once my headlight was replaced this feature cannot work again. This feature is what holds my headlights in alignment with a module behind the headlight. GM is aware of this issue, and they cannot fix it. Now I have headlights that will not stay in place. The GM dealership said it cannot set my headlights the proper way due to the feature not working now. GM owned the issue; told us their engineers are working to find a fix however it has been years and every Enclave that needs a new headlight loses the feature they can't fix. I bought this car for the adaptive headlight feature to help me see at night and now I'm stuck with a vehicle I don't even want because GM can't fix their own product. It is not fair, and I can't see at night at all now due to my headlight pointing at the ground. Safety is a huge issue. GM needs to recall and fix their Enclaves or any other vehicles they make that have Adaptive Forward Assistant Headlights.

ON THURSDAY, 7/26/2018, I HAD PARKED MY CAR IN A RESTAURANT PARKING LOT. I APPEAR TO HAVE PULLED THE VEHICLE UP ONTO A CONCRETE SPACE DIVIDER. WHEN I TRIED LEAVING THE RESTAURANT, I COULDN'T BACK OFF OF THE SPACE DIVIDER, THE CAR WOULDN'T MOVE BACKWARD, SO I TRIED PULLING FOREWORD. WHEN THE CAR CAME FREE FROM THE DIVIDER, IT SHOT FOREWORD. APPLYING THE BREAKS HAD NO EFFECT. IN FACT THE CAR APPEARED TO ACCELERATE. I WAS HEADED DIRECTLY TOWARD A CONCRETE BUILDING, SO TO AVOID HITTING THE BUILDING HEAD ON, I HAD JUST ENOUGH TIME TO TURN THE STEERING WHEEL SLIGHTLY CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO SIDE SWIPE THE BUILDING BUT IT CRASHED INTO TWO PARKED VEHICLES. IT CAUSED EXTENSIVE DAMAGE TO MY VEHICLE AND ONE OF THE PARKED VEHICLES AND ONLY SLIGHT DAMAGE TO THE THIRD. IT APPEARED THAT THE VEHICLE ACCELERATED BEYOND THE EFFORT I APPLIED TO THE GAS PEDAL, IT RAN AWAY AND THE APPLICATION OF THE BRAKES HAD NO OR LITTLE EFFECT IN SLOWING THE VEHICLE. IS THERE, OR HAS THERE BEEN, REPORTS OF SIMILAR PROBLEMS WITH ACCELERATION PROBLEMS WITH THE BUICK ENCLAVE, 2015 MODEL ?
I went to Firestone in 2023 about my tire recalled and they claimed there was no recalled. I went again on July 5th, 2025 to changed all my tires but three of them were the tire mentioned. I provided documentation but the agent refused any recalled. Today July 22 , the manager Jason C told me tire recalled only last 6 months and he looked at the recall but per him is not applicable because I used the tire. I was expecting free replacement of 3 tires but they refused or willing to made an adjustment. I'm looking to see if the comment from the manager were correct or not. The firestone location is on address: 777 Middletown Blvd, Langhorne, PA 19047-1823 phone 215-792-6901. If the firestone agent in 2023 told me there is no recall even with documentation and once again in July 2025 I was told the same thing .I will use the tires but during all this time I experience holes, changed valves and replacement one but it costed me money.
