What 2015 Buick Enclave owners say
Most recent owner complaints, unedited.
2015 Buick Enclave put in Park, doors unlocked, got out and the vehicle moved while in park.
I had storm damage to my vehicle and needed the front headlight replaced. This was a insurance claim and it went to a local body shop as well as a GM Dealership trying to fix the problem. My vehicle is equipped with Adaptive Forwarding Headlights that turn with my steering wheel. Once my headlight was replaced this feature cannot work again. This feature is what holds my headlights in alignment with a module behind the headlight. GM is aware of this issue, and they cannot fix it. Now I have headlights that will not stay in place. The GM dealership said it cannot set my headlights the proper way due to the feature not working now. GM owned the issue; told us their engineers are working to find a fix however it has been years and every Enclave that needs a new headlight loses the feature they can't fix. I bought this car for the adaptive headlight feature to help me see at night and now I'm stuck with a vehicle I don't even want because GM can't fix their own product. It is not fair, and I can't see at night at all now due to my headlight pointing at the ground. Safety is a huge issue. GM needs to recall and fix their Enclaves or any other vehicles they make that have Adaptive Forward Assistant Headlights.
I went to Firestone in 2023 about my tire recalled and they claimed there was no recalled. I went again on July 5th, 2025 to changed all my tires but three of them were the tire mentioned. I provided documentation but the agent refused any recalled. Today July 22 , the manager Jason C told me tire recalled only last 6 months and he looked at the recall but per him is not applicable because I used the tire. I was expecting free replacement of 3 tires but they refused or willing to made an adjustment. I'm looking to see if the comment from the manager were correct or not. The firestone location is on address: 777 Middletown Blvd, Langhorne, PA 19047-1823 phone 215‑792‑6901. If the firestone agent in 2023 told me there is no recall even with documentation and once again in July 2025 I was told the same thing .I will use the tires but during all this time I experience holes, changed valves and replacement one but it costed me money.
