Best and Worst Buick Enclave Years: What the NHTSA Data Shows

Across the 13 Buick Enclave model years from 2010 to 2022 that have NHTSA data, the typical year has about 132 owner complaints on file. These are the extremes:

Fewest owner complaints

2022 — 13 complaints, 1 recall campaign, 4★ NHTSA
2021 — 26 complaints, 2 recall campaigns, 5★ NHTSA
2019 — 42 complaints, 1 recall campaign, 5★ NHTSA

Most owner complaints

2014 — 292 complaints, 7 recall campaigns, 5★ NHTSA
2010 — 275 complaints, 6 recall campaigns
2011 — 212 complaints, 6 recall campaigns, 5★ NHTSA

Complaint counts are unverified owner reports to NHTSA and rise with how many cars were sold and how long they have been on the road, so treat them as a pointer for what to inspect, not a reliability score. Model years after 2022 are left out because they have had little time to accumulate reports. Always check a specific car by VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls.
