2012 Buick Enclave Seat Room and Comfort: Cons | ||
Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
2011 | 0 | The headrests on the two front seats are a NIGHTMARE! I had to recline my driver's seat slightly because the headrest pushes my head and neck so far forward, it was causing me to have pain and spasms in my neck and shoulders! I don't know who signed of on this design, but they were clearly asleep that day! I've heard this issue has been addressed in newer models and (I think) there is a newer option for which you can swap out these awful headrests. I may look into that... see full Buick Enclave review |

This the best point of this car. The leather, from Scotland, is the best I have experienced in a car... And the room is such that my 6 foot son feels separate from me when along for the drive. see full Lincoln MKS review |

Front seats are the most comfortable ones I have sat in, the lumbar adjustment is great, not only goes in and out ( harder / softer ), it also has an adjustment for up aand down. see full Lincoln MKS review |
