2022 Buick Enclave Retrofits Heated Seats

Heated Seats and Much More

The 2022 Buick Enclave has been retrofitted after a year of uncertainty due to parts shortages for many automakers and dealerships. The recent constraint on heated seats has been resolved and is in regular capacity for the Enclave Essence, Premium and Avenir. 

An Unforeseen Shortage 

Automakers were in distress when the semiconductor chips were in low supply in 2021. During this period, General Motors had to halt electric features from models to meet the demand. The heated and ventilated front seats, in addition to the heated rear outboard seats, were eliminated from the Buick Enclave, Encore GX and Envision models. Today, all Buick Enclaves will include the standard heated seats and GM will retrofit those who received a previous year’s model without them. Those affected vehicles can be serviced through a GM’s customer satisfaction program.

Some of those features include:

• Heated steering wheel
• Three rows with 7 seats
• Heated front and rear seats
• Ventilated front seats
• Available massaging function for both front seats
• Ample cabin and cargo space with soft-touch surfaces and perforated leather seats 
• Standard 8.0-inch IntelliLink touchscreen infotainment system with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto
• QuietTuningTM technology with Active Noise Cancellation to silence those conversations among all three rows

Exterior Design Features

Performance and Price

The 2022 Enclave has a powerful, but quiet 3.6-liter V-6 engine making 310 horsepower. The all wheel drive delivers optimal power and traction. While the rear suspension provides the smoothest ride. 

With a relatively low starting price of $44,900 MSRP, the 2022 Buick Enclave is less expensive than its competitors, the 2022 models of Acura MDX at $48,000 and BMW X3 at $45,400.
