#1 of 2 Enclave AWD by gunga Dec 27, 2008 (5:27 am)
2008 Enclave Was driving in some 4-8” snow for about 50’ and my AWD system stopped working. Got message on cluster panel saying “ALL WHEEL DRIVE OFF” . Tried shifting to low, natural, reverse, & Park, - No Change. Turned engine off and back on. - No Change. AWD System goes back to working after engine is off for 5-10 minutes. This has now happened 5 times in 2 days. Contacted dealer. They have no idea, but will look at it next week.

Picked up after 1 week. Service Manager indicated they could not find the problem, and there was nothing in the diagnosis indicating the problem. GM told them to replace the entire All- Wheel Drive Clutch Assembly. Took them 5 days to find and get the parts. Came from Arizona to Wisconsin. Who need AWD in Arizona? GM has temporary stop assemble. Hope this lasts
