Good luck and keep us posted if you can.
Also had a leaky sunroof that Dealer said was due to gutters being to short - they ordered the parts and replaced them one week later. Seems to have solved that problem.

If enough are filed we may get attention from GM...or a recall...
Can we return the car? I am not sure after spending 60 K it is worth taking this nonsense.
Any suggestions? :sick:
I would think that the first order of business is to find out why the car won't start.

Is there a way to set the radio on/off so it doesn't always come on when you start the car? Mine always comes on and the only way I can turn it off (without turning off the Navigation Screen) is to hit the right hand button on the steering wheel.
The Nav system works great when I set a destination with the buttons. However, the manual gives all sorts of commands for the audio and the nav that can be given with voice commands. I can't get any of the voice commands to work-I get a voice back that says the command isn't available or that it didn't hear anything I said. I do use the button that you hold for 2 seconds until you get a beep (very soft) and then say the command.
Any help will be appreciated.
I read some of the messages on this forum about dead batteries after a week or sometimes less. I noticed on my Enclave that the power ports are always on-even with the ignition off and the key removed. My previous cars had the power ports go off when you took the key out. I keep my cell phone charger plugged in and am wondering if it takes enough power to run down the battery? I wouldn't think that it would but--who knows??
Thanks to you all.
physically turns off the radio with the ignition. The power is turned off, but it comes back on as soon as you start the car.
All cars do the same thing
incorporated into the design of the Buick
Enclave. This unit monitors the battery
and charging system in the vehicle and
is capable of providing a 0.4mpg fuel
economy savings per vehicle. This equates
to over 3.34 million gallons of gasoline that
can be saved over the life of one model
year of production.
These features apply only to the 2008 Buick Enclave.

I hit lock. Then have to push and hold the remote start button for about 30 seconds before it starts and the button has to be held just right. (Works better on the bottom part of the button than the center). If you have big fingers, good luck!
Then to unlock press once for driver, twice for other doors. Child locks do not affect the "unlock" feature.
But I didn't buy one of the quietest cars on the road to hear creaking.
Otherwise totally in love with the car, only miss my heated steering wheel.
Flash signal (1 quick blink)
Lane changer (flashes 3-4 times)
and Turning (clicks into place and wheel has to turn to stop it or you flip it back manually)
For the flash signal push up/down and release.
For the lane changer push up/down and hold for about 2 seconds.
For the turning signal you push til it clicks and it stays on til you either turn the wheel or manually push it off.
Hope that helps.
Many thanks.
My $0.02.
Could this have anything to do with the replacement? electrical?
If this is not indicating that the bulb is out, I would definitely recommend taking it into your dealer of choice. If you need any further assistance please feel free to contact me directly.

Tricia, GM Customer Service.
I have a 2009 that just started doing this.
Does anyone know if this is indeed an electrical problem that needs to be resolved or is it just a 2 year old battery is bad...
I would encourage you to take your vehicle into your local GM dealership to be diagnosed. Please keep us posted on any information.
Thank you,

I have been back to the selling dealer 4 times, of which 3 they attempted to "fix" this issue, however they maintain that they dont feel the movement. Any other person driving for more than 5 minutes always feel it move. Field service rep reviewed and drove (so I was told) this vehicle and said he doesnt feel it move, but authorized replacment parts in track of seat. No one representing GM has driven after last pick up at dealer, reported it sill moves, they are not interested. GM headquarters has entered the picture, but is soley going on info from dealer and field rep only...
Had independent service center pull seat out, found problem (nylon bushing and hole in seat frame) and notified GM - sent pictures and summary evaluation, who notified dealer...no one is interested is acknowledging this as a problem - at GM or selling dealer.
I took think it is a safety issue. The NHTSA would like to help but dont have enough (or any) complaints YET on this specific issue. Also reported to Illinois Consumer Protection Agency States Attorney's office who is now looking into this complaint. Very frustrating to spend this kind of money, bought American Made only to support our workers (had no problems with my MDX) and have them all say...tough luck!
Question, should I let go and just let the vehicle die leaving it sitting on the street?
Reading each of your past and current posts lets me know I am not the only living this nightmare!!
I apologize for the problems you have experienced with your vehicle. Please keep me posted on any information from the dealership.

I would encourage you to get a second opinion from another GM dealership. Please keep us posted!
