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.

• 10/1/11 Picked up vehicle from Eagle (15 days after it broke-down): the following new issues are identified before I even get the rental car back, although I was instructed to return it and they would fix my car later (maybe Monday, 10/3). The air conditioner does not work (won’t even turn on), the tires feel bouncy (even though they just “according to the receipt†adjusted the pressure in all the tires), the steering wheel is not aligned, right rear speaker does not work, and the panel is removed from the back seat (my husband fixed). • 10/2/11 (3:00) We are heading to Lakeland for my Uncle & Aunt’s 40th wedding anniversary party and the car lights come on and sounds that the traction is turned off and the stabilitrak needs repair. So we have to return home and miss this once in a lifetime party! • 10/3/11 (2:00) I went to Eagle to discuss AC charges (they are requesting we pay half of the $200 warranty deductible) I refused and asked to speak with Maintenance Manager & Car salesman that promised to repair when I purchased the vehicle. They finally agreed to incur all AC costs. • 10/5/11 Eagle Maintenance to pick-up vehicle and repair AC (5 days after compliant) and review problems with stabilitrak
