Consumer Description
I PURCHASED A 2008 BUICK ENCLAVE IN SEPTEMBER 2015. I UNDERSTOOD THAT IT WAS AN OLDER VEHICLE, BUT IT APPEARED TO BE IN EXCEPTIONS CONDITION AND DECENT MILEAGE. HOWEVER, THE DAY AFTER PURCHASE, THERE WAS A PRETTY BAD STORM. AS I WAS DRIVING, WATER BEGAN TO POUR THROUGH THE CLOSED SUNROOF. IT LEAKED ONTO THE DASHBOARD, RAIN BEGAN TO SEEP FROM UNDERNEATH THE DASH ON BOTH SIDES ON TO MY FEET AS I DROVE. I WENT TO THE DEALER TO GET IT CHECKED OUT, BUT THEY WEREN'T ABLE TO FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH THE SUNROOF.THE LEAKAGE OCCURS WHEN THE VEHICLE IS STATIONARY AND IN MOTION. IT HAS CONTINUED, AND NOW MY AUDIO STOPPED WORKING, NO RADIO, CHIMING,ONSTAR, BACKUP NOISES OR ANYTHING. I HAVE HAD THE AUDIO SYSTEM LOOKED AT BUT, THEY CAN'T FIGURE OUT WHY NOTHING'S WORKING. THIS SO FRUSTRATING, I HAVE CONTACTED GM, BUT I WAS TOLD THERE ARE NO RECALLS FOR THE ISSUES THAT MENTIONED. I HOPE THAT BUICK FIGURES OUT THAT THIS IS A SOMEWHAT COMMON PROBLEM AMONGST ENCLAVE OWNERS AND FIX IT.
