The problem is the brake squealing issues with the Enclave when backing up. GM service has been unable to resolve.

[@TeamDIYNow]

I had the same problem on my 2018 Enclave Avenir and the dealership fixed back in 2019. Your dealership should be aware of this TSB as it was released 4 years ago. Print this off and take in there and tell them to fix it: static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2020/MC-10186067-9999.pdf. Hope this helps.

I love how GM’s badge engineering has evolved over the years. You can tell the resemblance to the new Traverse and Acadia but it still looks really unique

[@RaitisRides]

This is so very true Alex!

[@phatphuk2761]

Agreed. The side screams new Acadia, but the rear and front is reminiscent of the new Traverse. R/S Traverse is the best looking to me, this in Avenir trim is second. Acadia C and D pillar side profile I just can't stand, even though this is very similar.

[@inducedapathy1296]

Side profile has been the same mostly since 2008. The Acadia is a cousin to the xt6 not the traverse or enclave. It used to be though until about 2012 2014ish. I had a 2012 Acadia. The new redesign turned it into a glorified five seater or six if you put small children in the back. Shame.

So great to see GM FINALLY designing Buicks once again that honor their heritage of thoughtful luxury along with the power to move these gorgeous vehicles! Great American family memories are made in these cars! From someone who first rode in a black 64 Wildcat as a tiny girl, then took family trips in the never quit blue Electra around 72. My parents had a silver Park Ave in the early 90s, then my Dad's last car had the unbeatable, tough as nails 3800 V6 in his metallic silver Le Sabre (which I still use as my 2nd car lol). I also, as a young woman, loved my own 90 V6 Regal. Middle class Americans do not want EVs, cannot afford Cadillacs, nor do we want them. Buick has always been a fantastic, affordable choice for Americans but GM dropped the ball over the years by neglecting its GS racing heritage (turning off young people) and not updating stylistically. I am old enough to have witnessed this! But this Enclave is such a great step in the right direction in every respect! It's time 80% of Buicks are sold in America again- not foreign countries. Joe, you have made my morning with this beautiful new Buick!

This 2025 Buick Enclave is a very very nice luxury SUV, it is beautiful inside and outside. It will be interesting to see how much the price jumps from the 2024 year model, it has a load of options and convenience features like in the cargo area it has a large number of chrome cargo strap tie down rings so you can tie down cargo or put in a net to keep things like groceries from flying around. The Supercruise option for long highway trips will be nice.

[@RaitisRides]

These are such great points!

[@fawncappitelli4297]

We paid $62k for my '22 Enclave Avenir, before trade in on my '18 and discounts. I saw an uptick in pricing for the next 2 years coming out to where they are around $63-64k+. Adding in Super Cruise and the extras (not to mention the unknown ones) I'm going to assume it's near $70k+. At that point it might price me out of buying my 4th Enclave. Might have to go back to an Acadia now that they put it back to its original size for the most part. Which is a shame, as we love the Enclave and our family has had the last 3 designs, and my father has had 1 from each design.

I've towed boats no problem in all my enclaves. That is with the V6 though which had a trailer option. The four cylinder no clue but might be fine but grow tired faster than the V6 or break even more. That's the problem with displacement as there is no replacement. I would have preferred the 3.6 option with a supercharger or turbo considering the avenirs run me around 60k. 310HP natty plus bring back the e85 flex fuel and toss a supercharger ala ultra park avenues or turbskis and this silly sport mode button I have my avenir might mean something.

[@fenrirslip]

I think it'd be in Buick's best interest to introduce a full-size SUV that acts as an in-between to the GMC Yukon Denali Ultimate and the Cadillac Escalade. Buick in its current form is the brand that sits between GMC and Cadillac. I guess the brands that I can best compare Buick to would be Acura, Mazda, and maybe Lexus where there's a sprinkle of both sport and premium style. I even have a few names for this potential full-size SUV for Buick. Of course, the name has to start with "En" and they are the Enlightener, the Enquirer, the Enquiry, the Enchanter, and the Enforcer. I personally think the Enquiry and the Enchanter are the two best names for this potential vehicle as it would be the flagship SUV Buick offers and would also be the most luxurious.

[@RaitisRides]

It will be interesting to see how it goes.

[@jdunn501]

I like the idea of an upscale full size truck but the space between the top level Chevy / GMC and Cadillac is already pretty small. It would be tough to find the sweet spot that justifies the introduction of a new model. Not that many need 2 spd transfer case and heavy duty suspension for towing. Whereas in the Mid-size 3 row crossover segment, the prices for the true luxury brands (BMW/Mercedes) are nearly double over the high level trims from mass market segment (Honda/Kia/GMC). There is a lot of space for the upscale brands (Lexus, Buick, Acura) to offer a an upscale version of a vehicle built on a mass market frame. I was leaning towards the Lexus TX 350 but this video has thinking that we’ll wait for the new Enclave to come out to give it a look before pulling the trigger on the purchase.

It was larger inside it was kind of nuts considering they want so much money for a cheap chevy/gmc version of those. EDIT: Just to add I have a family of seven plus a doggo.

[@user-yx4on8hx4w]

We test drove everything in this class and did a ridiculous amount of research and comparison, and ultimately picked a 2024 enclave aviner over a loaded TX. The enclave drives smoother, is much more quiet inside, and overall feels more well built than the Lexus product. Also, the adaptive suspension and variable chassis offered on the Buick puts the ride quality of the Lexus to shame IMO. The 2.0t in the Lexus also whines too loud, hopefully the larger 2.5t motor in the Buick is less punchy and much smoother than the Lexus or Toyota offering.

I wish GM would bring back the Envoy but not like they did with the Trail Blazer which is smaller than the out going model which was identical to the Envoy and Buick Rainer,Isuzu Ascender and Saab model SUVs. I want to upgrade but haven't found anything out there comparable to my Envoys as far as frame, utility & potent V6 rear wheel drivetrain! Drove a GMC 2021 Denali Yukon to Miami from Savannah GA & enjoyed it but i honestly missed driving my Envoy after the experience which i was surprised being the age difference and the packaging & tech layout.

I'm glad there's more room in the 3rd row!

[@RaitisRides]

I totally agree with you!

[@donna8243]

Not a GM fan, but wow, that interior is beautiful. I may put this on my short list.

[@dale3742]

Is this a first generation all new motor??

[@joesinkovits6591]

“More cameras than Circuit City used to sell”🤣 Love it, Joe! That made my day!

[@towondagrant-tp3wp]

Buick Enclave! ❤🔥

[@jgriffin411]

I really wish they had hidden the rear wiper under the spoiler. I think that would have given the rear glass a much cleaner look.

[@angelblackann7490]

Im ready for this. When will we see this out on the lots?

[@gabrieladiaz713]

Waoo it's so beautiful suv they hit a home rum

[@RaitisRides]

I totally agree with you!

[@Destroyer-Grizzly-BIH]

Lmfao! Couple extra kids you didn’t know about!!!!🤣 Gotdamn, I love his sense of humor ☠️

[@RaitisRides]

Thanks for letting me share the laughs and the cars with you!

[@davealmer3803]

Doesn t the 24 Envision Avenir have S.C. as an option...?? GR8 review.

[@RaitisRides]

No it odes not. Thank you so much!

[@issayair]

I have always liked the Buick enclave, but there always seemed to be something missing - until now... Great job, Buick! If this is the production model, it automatically moves to the top of my short list. 👍

[@RaitisRides]

They really did such a great job!

[@sheilamunyer]

This is what I’m looking for, not being a hybrid is disappointing.😢

[@rtcturnemup7028]

I think it’s funny how all new Buicks only took the grille from the wildcat. The headlights aren’t even the same as the concept 😂

[@RaitisRides]

Well it s the whole front fascia.

[@donwarrington4916]

This does a nice job of fitting in between the Traverse and the XT6

[@normanli7085]

But as big as the traverse, which both are bigger than the XT6 and the old GMC Acadia (until the redesign)

[@RaitisRides]

I think you are so very right!

[@RaitisRides]

@@normanli7085 That is so very true!

[@user-yx4on8hx4w]

​@@normanli7085I think they were referring to the overall quality features and finishes, not so much on size

[@jeffcobb331]

So many fabulous features and design touches; but, I'm just not ready to settle for a turbo 4 no matter how much HP and torque it has. Thanks EPA.
