Buick Enclave Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada/Mexico-

14637843) - 2021 - CRC - 12/9/20

Driving and Operating

193

The vehicle has electric power steering.
It does not have power steering fluid.
Regular maintenance is not required.

If power steering assist is lost due to a
system malfunction, the vehicle can be
steered, but may require increased effort.

If the steering assist is used for an extended
period of time while the vehicle is not
moving, power assist may be reduced.

If the steering wheel is turned until it
reaches the end of its travel and is held
against that position for an extended period
of time, power steering assist may be
reduced.

Normal use of the power steering assist
should return when the system cools down.

See your dealer if there is a problem.

Curve Tips

.

Take curves at a reasonable speed.

.

Reduce speed before entering a curve.

.

Maintain a reasonable steady speed
through the curve.

.

Wait until the vehicle is out of the curve
before accelerating gently into the
straightaway.

Steering in Emergencies

.

There are some situations when steering
around a problem may be more effective
than braking.

.

Holding both sides of the steering wheel
allows you to turn 180 degrees without
removing a hand.

.

The Antilock Brake System (ABS) allows
steering while braking.

Off-Road Recovery

The vehicle's right wheels can drop off the
edge of a road onto the shoulder while
driving. Follow these tips:

1. Ease off the accelerator and then,

if there is nothing in the way, steer the
vehicle so that it straddles the edge of
the pavement.

2. Turn the steering wheel about

one-eighth of a turn, until the right front
tire contacts the pavement edge.

3. Turn the steering wheel to go straight

down the roadway.
