This Year's Model Updates:

The 2010 Buick Enclave receives quicker downshifts for its automatic transmission, a new top-of-the-line CXL2 trim level, a USB jack for the optional Bose stereo, standard 19-inch wheels, available 20-inch chrome wheels and minor equipment adjustments.

Pros:
  • Sleek design inside and out, smooth and quiet ride, all three rows are spacious, ample cargo space, top crash-test scores.
Cons:
  • Compromised outward visibility, excessive interior chrome trim reflects sunlight, size hampers maneuverability.

  • Comfort and Classy - 2010 Buick Enclave
    By -

    Love my Enclave. This has been a great vehicle for me. Love the AWD and traction control. Only real issues have been the many recalls. Dealerships have been wonderful to fix, but too many.

  • vacation killer - 2010 Buick Enclave
    By -

    You will more than likely have costly air conditioning issues in excess of 1,100 When you will need it most like perhaps your dream vacation, it will more than likely fail you. Tried to drive it to Florida from Missouri and we made it to Tennessee and what do you know, electrical issues. Ruined our dream vacation. Do yourself a favor and look elsewhere, and when I say elsewhere I mean stay away from GM products.

  • my 2010 Buick Enclave totaled in electrical fire - 2010 Buick Enclave

    I have an attorney because of all the electrical failures. Then last night as I was driving home the car shut off and went up in flames.

  • 5 trips to SoCAL and Edmonton - 2010 Buick Enclave
    By -

    This is the best of the best, travelling form Edmonton Alberta to Las Vegas then down to Disneyland and San Diego for the 5th time now and the ride is quiet and the handling is great 75,000 km in less than 3 years and no issues what so ever and the XBOX 360 running during all the trips never had any effect on the battery at all.

  • Poor design features to be aware of!! - 2010 Buick Enclave
    By -

    Things you should consider: Snow gets trapped in the front springs causing the vehicle to shake horribly until removed, the latch to the spare tire may not release with snow/mud, front cup holders are to close to the front accessory plug ins to be able to use your accessories and use the cup holders at the same time, the ignition cylinder is designed so poor that you cannot have other keys on your key chain with out causing the cylinder to break causing the vehicle to lock up, the passenger seat comes ONLY in a 4 way so long distance trips are uncomfortable for the passenger, cannot access 3rd seat with childrens car seat in the 2nd row, Roadside Service is NOT all that you may think it is

  • Good fuel economy for such a large car with good reliablity - 2010 Buick Enclave
    By -

    Although I have only owned the Buick for one year, it has been a year of trouble free operation. Two oil changes and 13,000 miles later (first at 3,000, second at 13,000), and that is all the service has been - less than $100. The oil sensor is a nice touch, you only get oil changes when the car tells you it is time too based on driving conditions. It is very comfortable and the whole family likes its features as mentioned below. The teething problems the people in 2008 seems to have benefited the later model years with additional features such as GPS with traffic navigation, more horsepower with the same gas mileage, and overall just a better car with imrproved transmission performance.

  • Auto transmission hard shifting - 2010 Buick Enclave
    By -

    Auto trans has a hard shift from 1st to 2nd and or 2nd to 3rd. This occurs most of the time. I expected the shift to be smooth all the time, especially in a vehicle the cost of an Enclave. This problem is anoying to me. Otherwise I like the car. Dealer CSR said its nornal for that vehicle. I thought the shifting would improve over time with more milage,but its still the same. After 70 years plus of making auto trans you would think GM could get it right. Would not buy another Enclave due to this problem.

  • Great Crossover - 2010 Buick Enclave
    By -

    My wife wanted out of her Odyssey minivan so we started looking at crossovers. The Enclave has more features than most other crossovers at a great price. The ride is smooth and comfortable. All of the controls are easy to use and intuitive. Sliding second row seats are a nice touch and allow easy access for our 3 kids and friends. GPS takes some getting used to, but once you get the hang of it, its easy to use. Gas mileage is poor, but we knew that going in. Overall, not as much storage room with 3rd row up as the minivan, but my wife is much happier, so Im happier. Very pleased with this purchase.

    Quiet, responsive and top notch quality throughout.

  • Love my Enclave - 2010 Buick Enclave
    By -

    Drove the car from No. Cal to Park City, UT in 12 hrs. Ride was very enjoyable and smooth. Averaged 21.5 mpg. Nav system and XM were a big plus. Very little road noise if any. Love the car.
