2020 BUICK ENCLAVE — Complaint #2061830

Open-data reference.

NHTSA Complaint about FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM filed February 1, 2025

NHTSA complaint #2061830 (ODI reference 11640093) concerns a 2020 BUICK ENCLAVE and was filed on February 1, 2025. The owner reports the failure occurred on January 28, 2025. The report was geocoded to California based on the filer's self-reported location. The affected component is categorized as fuel/propulsion system, one of NHTSA's standardized taxonomy codes used to group defect patterns across make, model, and year.

The filer flagged the following severity indicators: crash: no, fire: no, injuries: 0, fatalities: 0. No crash, fire, or fatality was associated with this report, which places it in the early-warning stream rather than the priority-review stream. Because a VIN was supplied, this complaint is tied to a specific vehicle and not just a model-year cohort.

Individual complaints are consumer-submitted and unverified by NHTSA engineers — the agency's role at this stage is to collect, index, and make them searchable. What matters for federal action is the pattern: when many owners of the same BUICK ENCLAVE cohort independently describe similar fuel/propulsion system failures, defect investigators have grounds to open a PE and request manufacturer data. Related filings for the same vehicle and component appear below, and the detail page for the full 2020 BUICK ENCLAVE shows the complete component-level complaint distribution alongside any active investigations or recalls.
