Used Buick Enclave: the years to buy and the years to skip
Every Buick Enclave from 2010 to 2024, across 2 generations: what each year typically sells for (about $7,000 to $40,000), its crash rating, and whether it's a year to target or skip. The best bets are 2013–2017, 2019, 2021–2024. Look harder at or skip 2010–2012, 2018, 2020.
2018–2024 Buick Enclave
A quiet, comfortable three-row SUV with one of the roomiest third rows around.
Years to target: 2019, 2021–2024. Look harder at or skip: 2018, 2020. It has an average reliability record.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2018 | $16,000 | Look harder | 5 of 5 | ~110,000 |
| 2019 | $19,500 | Target | 5 of 5 | ~95,000 |
| 2020 | $22,500 | Look harder | 5 of 5 | ~85,000 |

Worth knowing
- 2018: owner complaints spike (64, mostly the brakes).
- 2020: owner complaints spike (57, mostly the engine).
- The infotainment feels dated next to rivals. Top Avenir trims lose value quickly, which can make them a good used deal.
The trim we'd park in our garage
Look for the Essence: it adds leather, heated front seats, a power liftgate and blind-spot monitoring over the base Preferred.

2010–2017 Buick Enclave
A quiet, plush three-row crossover with a big cabin and an upscale feel.
Years to target: 2013–2017. Look harder at or skip: 2010–2012. It has a below-average reliability record.
| Year | Typical price | Verdict | Crash rating | Typical miles |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2010 | $7,000 | Skip | 5 of 5 | ~180,000 |
| 2011 | $7,500 | Skip | 5 of 5 | ~170,000 |
| 2012 | $8,000 | Skip | 5 of 5 | ~155,000 |
| 2013 | $8,500* | Target | 5 of 5 | ~145,000 |
| 2014 | $9,000* | Target | 5 of 5 | ~135,000 |
| 2015 | $10,000* | Target | 5 of 5 | ~125,000 |
| 2016 | $10,500* | Target | 5 of 5 | ~115,000 |
| 2017 | $11,500* | Target | 5 of 5 | ~105,000 |
* Estimated from nearby years, since few were listed for sale.
Worth knowing
- Skip 2010–2012. The V6 in early years is known for timing chain stretch, which is expensive to fix.
- Fuel economy is poor by modern standards. Even on later years, listen for timing chain rattle on a cold start.
The trim we'd park in our garage
Target the Leather Group: it adds leather, heated power front seats and a power liftgate over the base trim. 2013 and newer got a refreshed cabin and touchscreen.
On the test drive

Safety tech
