Expert Reply:
The only plug-in-play brake controller there is for a 2021 Buick Enclave would be a wireless one for which I recommend using the Curt Echo Wireless Trailer Brake Controller part # C51180. The Curt Echo plugs into the trailer connector and then you'll use your phone to set it up. The unit then works automatically with the brake pedal and there's a manual override button on the app if needed.
This vehicle does not have any sort of plug under the dash for a traditional brake controller so wireless will be your only option without splicing.
