Lovely Video clip! Sorry for the intrusion, I would appreciate your opinion. Have you considered - Trentvorty Safe Vehicle Theorem (Have a quick look on google cant remember the place now)? It is a good one off product for discovering how to repair your car the simple way minus the headache. Ive heard some interesting things about it and my buddy finally got cool results with it.

I owned a 2010 Buick Lacrosse. I love it!!! The moment I laid eyes on it, I knew this car belongs to me. My daughter called me and asked me if I seen the new Buick Lacrosse and I said yep! And, I’m going to get it. She said, she wanted to get it too, but it doesn’t makes sense having two Lacrosse’s in the family. I then said, I guess your gonna have to find another car. So far no problems. Basic yearly inspections. Pass every time. 70K miles after 13 years. I’m retired and don’t travel much. It rides new every time. It still looks great. Needs new rear shocks. $60/parts, do it yourself buying the part online. Otherwise, it still running great. Many mechanics at the dealership compliment me on how well the car been taking care of. When you’re blessed with a nice car by God, you really should take good care of it and it will take care of you. No serious…out of the pocket money yet to put in this car. That’s a blessing! I tell everybody to buy this Lacrosse. It’s a great reliable car. I’ve been a Buick owner all my life.

I have a 2014 Buick LaCrosse Premium 1 3.6 FWD and thankfully, I've been able to fix the issues myself like replacing the vent valve solenoid in my vapor canister box that caused me to fail my emissions test, fuel rail sensor, camshaft position sensors, spark plugs and ignition coils and my two front wheel hub bearing and assembly, sway bar links in the front and of course change my own oil regularly. In addition, i did my front and rear rotors and brake pads. Now, the next thing is replacing my struts in the front and shocks in the rear and cleaning my fuel injectors. I hope i won't need any new fuel injectors. That'll be $400 for 6 of them. Owning a car is a big responsibility. Being able to fix quite a bit of your own issues is a big help and something to be proud of.

Sadly, I had to retire my dad's 2011 Lacrosse which I inherited 4 years ago when he passed away. My dad had no problems with the car. He did replace the tires and battery. It was downhill for me. The computer system went out without warning 2 years ago and was replaced. Last week same problem, dead computer. The mechanic also found a leak in the oil tank. I sent the car to the junk man with a tear in my eye. It was a beautiful car, 75,000 miles.

I have 2012 Buick lacrosse leather for almost 10 months luckily low miles but it was time for a inspection. Found out it needed tires all around and some other stuff I had no clue what it was and it cost me whopping $3000. Smh Haven’t even had car for year yet ughhhh Anyways, I always hear a light noise when driving any idea what that is?

Only major problem I've had on my 2011 Buick LaCrosse CXL is cold starts occasionally, bought it from the dealership in December of 2010 an it has 162k miles but I've also heard from my buddy that works at the Buick dealership the cream color models from 2011 rarely showed up to the shop for major problems

@TCSkiFilms Год назад

What would be great is a ballpark estimate of how much the repairs would be, especially the timing chain. I know that there is a difference in the cost of getting it done at the dealer vs an independent garage/mechanic but the reason isn't always the labor rate but that the dealer will replace ALL the parts that can/should be done while replacing the timing belt/chain; like the water pump for example. I am looking to buy a used vehicle but clearly, while some are fantastic vehicles the potential problems outweigh all other considerations.

@bhough410 Год назад

As you mentioned the mechanic/customer service should discuss what additional parts that shop thinks should be included in a timing chain replacement. This service would vary by hundreds of dollars from shop to shop, maybe more than $1000 depending on what part of the country. Simply no way the cost could be estimated in a YT video.

2012 lacrosse with 72k i got it at 50k only had 1 issue Ac compressor went out. Had a aftermarket warranty company fix it no outta pocket for me. Other than that great car i did alot of proactive maintenance. Trans flush, coolant flush, evap cleaning, throttle body cleaning, new spark plugs, new battery, new water pump, regular oil change of course and new tires/rear shocks i work at a dealership so i get everything discounted and techs work on my car for dirt cheap. Overall the lacrosse is a good car but you gotta fork over the money when its due and sometimes its good to just be proactive and do routine maintenance. Aka more than just oil changes it cost to maintain a reliable vehicle always remember that

So i changed the vvt sol myself and problem got fixed. Also started to see that the dash said a problem with the power steering and problem is that this car power steering is part of the trans, so you need to give the trans its maintnance, got fixed. electrical issues, i believe it has charging issues because everytime i have the headlights ON and i flip a switch inside the car the headlights dim, but it really isnt that big a deal because everything works.

I love my 2011 lacrosse. But so far I have the wheel speed sensor issue, a/c clutch is bad, I think my timing chain need to be replaced but no codes yet. And a dummy light that says to service stabilitrack and also service brake assist

@scottgreig1725 3 месяца назад

Having the same lights come on, brake assist and service.stabilitrack. was this an easy fix?

@Jsmitt716 3 месяца назад

@@scottgreig1725 lol I'm still riding with it... I've been out of work and had back surgery so money is so tight I had to just let it go for a while. From the research I've done it's a speed sensor on one of the hubs that isn't too hard to replace

Great video. The problems I've had with my 2013 buick lacrosse, purchased in 2016 with 42K miles were (and this in order): 1. Water in trunk (it was either the sunroof or tail lights that had a bad seal) covered under warranty thankfully, dealership said around $350-$500, between there i cant remember 2. Hub bearings in the front (I got the abs/stability system error but noticed it driving weird) also covered under warranty, don't recall the price 2. Alternator went bad, $500 fix plus the battery, not covered under warranty 3. Water pump went bad, covered under warranty, $500 to fix if i had to pay out of pocket 4. Catalytic converter went bad, $630 fix out of pocket 5. Mass flow index senor went bad, this set off a check engine light, $200 fix out of pocket 6. Rear view mirror fell off, had to be re-bond by a glass company, $20 7. Right rear shock broken, $500 fix 7. Water in foot well of passenger and rear right passenger, $ to be determined. 2 weeks later and $700 later, it was the rear windshield seal and rear passenger door firewall I have 120K miles on it now. Idk if I'd get it again honestly, maybe it was made on a Monday. I love the way it drives and looks and I'm very thankful the engine and transmission are all great. I hope to get another 120K miles out of it

I had a '12 Impala with 3.6 and had to replace 2 vvt sensors but after that it was fine traded it in at 132000 as the infamous GM crap multi reading came across dash..service brake system,service Trac control..reduced engine power. My 2011 Malibu had same problem as it began to run very bad but Impala never had running issues. It did hesitate every so often though on acceleration. The diagnostic system on GM's are horrible. Won't let you know when your battery is bad. My Impala was running on a 6 yr old battery and it started fine the cranking amps went bad (tested bad)causing transmission problems. I replaced battery and all was good drove car car another 33,000 miles no issues with trans.I noticed water pumps are an issue on these cars seen Carfax on one that had pump replaced twice in 30,000 miles.

@wooshoo8033 no something is wrong your car is running too lean or too rich. The air/fuel ratio is off. I work at a dealership it could be a number of things but big chance it's the 02 sensor. I recommend you bite the bullet and go to a dealership to be sure
