CarComplaints.com Notes: Buying the first model year of any vehicle is rarely a good idea. You become a guinea pig for the automaker and they are really not nice to guinea pigs.
The 2008 Enclave has a wide enough range of problems to issue a warning. There's transmission failure under 90k miles, new power steering units costing over $1,300, and enough engine complaints to NHTSA to scare anyone away.

This site says to report each problem separately. This could take DAYS. Seat heaters only work when they feel like it. 0 degrees. Press seat heater button. It comes on and then in 2 seconds goes off. Try again and again and again. Same results. After the car has warmed up (5 to 10 minutes) they will stay on. Great !!! After the car is already warm THEN the seat heater works.
We thought we were buying an SUV just 1 step down from a Cadillac Escalade. Turns out we got something just 1 step up from a Chevy Corvair.
