Complaints owners filed with NHTSA naming each system, per model year; a bold count links the year’s own page on that system. Counts scale with sales and with time on the road; nothing here is a rate, and NHTSA’s headings are coarse (“Power Train” is the transmission and the driveline).

Common questions

Source: NHTSA complaint database

Which Buick Enclave system draws the most complaints?

Airbag: 259 complaints across 12 model years, 44% of everything owners filed about the Buick Enclave. A count, not a rate — it says nothing about how many were sold.

Which Buick Enclave year has the most complaints?

2017 (179), 2016 (141), 2018 (65). Older years have had longer to collect them; the year pages show each year's share by system.
