I'm not entirely satisfied with this vehicle.

I've had more repairs on this vehicle than any Buick I have owned. I'm not happy with the position of items on the dashboard...can't see the turn signal as it is blocked by the position of the steering wheel. I find I have to take my eyes off the wheel when I engage the A/C, clear the mist from the front window...it is awkward. Also, the head rest on the passenger side blocks my view sometimes when merging on to a parkway.

Expected to own another car eqaul to our past 97 Regal

Although our 2011 LaCrosse has safety features our 97 Regal did not, the LaCrosse is smaller inside, gets 3-5 mpg less, has so many blind spots it is dangerous. This is especially true for a shorter person. The LaCrosse is equipped with a smaller engine than the 3.8 the Regal had and the performance is less. I recently had most of the fluids changed. At $800, for fluids, I felt that was excessive! The interior function panel: heat, fans, door locks, emergency brakes, radio functions, is unsafe also. With nothing but little squares and small print to look for these things, one who wears glasses for near vision only, not for driving, has his/her eyes taken off the road for too long a period of time. A standardization of dials is a must with all vehicles to provide a better safety to the driver that jumps from one vehicle he/she owns, to another. When fog hits your window and you instantly need air on your window, this is not the time to fumble for the right button to push; eyes off the road, in the fog, I don't think so! I will never buy another one until these functions are easily found, in the dark, in the bright sunlight, and in the fog! I suggest to Buick that they make a model without all the expensive do-dads; get back to the basic automobile that gets great mileage, has visibility plus, and is simpler to drive! I just heard an "Amen" from those who have died from the poor visibility issue and an "Amen" from seniors who struggle with so many unneeded choices or so-called conveniences! Wake up Buick. Simpler is better and safer!

I'm not 100% happy with my LaCrosse....I feel the dashboard (selecting A/C etc could be a lot less cumbersome....I need to look down and take my eyes off the road when selecting some of the possibilities.

I also find the rear vision is not what I had in the LaSabre which I loved. I do like the pick up but would also like better gas mileage.

Disappointed that my tires had such dramatic slits.

I've discussed this vehicle before....I love the looks, how it handles, etc. However, I feel some of the items on the dashboard are inappropriately placed and it is not easy to reach the controls without taking your eyes off the road. I cannot see my turn signals because of the placement of the steering wheel...just some irritating examples.

Buick Lacrosse

This is my third Buick. We had a 92 Lesabre that had a multitude of electronic issues but we kept it for many years. We moved on to a 99 LeSabre which was an excellent car. Had it for 13 years and donated it to a refugee family. Still running well for them. Had the LaCrosse a couple of years and so far it's been a good car. Probably the last one though as it is getting harder to get in and out as it sits close to the ground. My other car is a Tiguan and it has proved to be the best car I have owned. The Buicks were solid and dependable but I need something a little higher off the ground to get in and out of.

50 + Years of Driving Buicks

I have been very happy with my Buick! Gets good mileage, to date has not had any extensive or expensive repairs. Very comfortable driving and riding vehicle. It is big enough that four passengers are extremely comfy and five do well if not hundreds of miles trip. I would research carefully but would probably buy a Buick again if affordable. I purchased this one used and would do the same again. This had been a leased vehicle and the dealer had done all maintenance on is so they knew they were selling a reliable vehicle.

Has been a very good ride!

I picked up this car when purchased used and left on a trip that put several thousand miles on it. Went from KS to Montana then on to Oregon and back to KS. It handles like a dream still, is very comfortable both in front and back passenger areas. Have been driving Buicks since 1970 so like the reliability and comfort of them.

Buick La Crosse, the best ca I ever owned!

Ergonomically superior, most comfortable ride, fantastic roadability, extremely dependable. I feel it is a very safe car to ride in and I'm very confident that my wife and passengers are safe and well protected while riding in it. My next car will indeed be another Buick model similar my 2011Buick La Crosse.

Great car

Comfortable ride. Good on gas. Lots of pickup when you need it. My only regret is that I don't have the memory for the seat position.

Love this car

this is the most favorite of all cars I've owned. It is classy, has lots of features, and has been very reliable. It also allows me to carry a lot of gear with the fold-down rear seats. Everyone is surprised at its versatility
