      Where to begin. 70k miles, timing chain replaced 3k, now needs engine replaced. A 43k vehicle worthless at 70k miles. According to several mechanics I’ve spoken with it’s not just the Enclave, but more or less any of them from 2008 to 2014 do the same thing between 40 and 120k miles. How do you not resolve this issue? I feel completely scammed by a company I thought was highly reputable.

      The 3.6l has various editions and models. It’s unlikely that from 2008-2014 the 3.6l remained the same. I think the Caddy’s used a version of the 3.6l that would eat oil. If you didn’t change your oil often enough it would lead to wear or damage to the chain and phasors. Sounds similar to your issue tbh. Change that oil or check your level more often. If you bought it used somebody didn’t do proper maintenance.
