My Experience

I’ve driven many cars in my life: Mercedes, Lexus, Cadillac, Lincoln, Oldsmobile, Mazda, Audi, Chevrolet, Ford. This was my first Buick. It has been the best car I’ve ever owned! I have truly enjoyed driving it and never had a moments problem until recently (a leak in the radiator). I guess I will need to trade soon bc it is a 2012 model … after all, they can’t last forever!

Awesome full size vehicle

I am 2nd owner. It was one year old when purchased. It has been an excellent vehicle vehicle. Upper 30s for highway mpg. Quiet comfortable ride still after 12 years. It does have several drawbacks. 1) the windshield pillar airbags are large and create a blind spot sometimes. 2) The hybrid unit takes up 1/3 of the available trunk space. I wish Buick never stopped producing these vehicles. 121K miles and looking to get 200K out of her.

2012 Buick LaCrosse

I absolutely love my 2012 Buick LaCrosse! It's ride is comparable to that of a Cadillac! It's an excellent highway car! It hugs the road with great steering, accelerates well, especially when passing and riding curves! It's comfortable with plenty of leg and head room; the ride is quiet with excellent sounds coming from the radio! It has many features that I love about this vehicle. It's a great looking vehicle and very durable too! It does everything but cook and clean for you! ?

Awesome luxury car!

I can't say enough good things about my Lacrosse 2012 one of the few things I was not crazy about is that it doesn't allow you to even check your own tranny fluid. You have to take it to a shop and the other low scoring was on the door design.

Don’t buy if over 100k miles

I’ve had to replace countless parts on this vehicle once it got over 100,000 miles. Only one previous owner who took very good care of the vehicle. It’s become a money pit that I’ve had in and out of the mechanic shop once every couple of months.

Some issues.

1st was the motor to fail after less than 1000 miles after warranty expired. GM was kind enough to provide a new motor, but still left me with a $7k repair bill. 2nd was the radiator. Could be due to an accident previously. 3rd-4th-5th chasing coolant leaks. 1st hose to engine block. Then coolant tank and hoses, then lower radiator hose connector broke. Changed those hoses at same time, to be safe. 6th Failed A/C compressor,

Buick LaCrosse - 2012

My dear friend, Dan Bernacik bought this car brand new. I was one of his first passengers. Impressed with the smoth ride. Dan died last year. Talked with his widow, and she asked if I would be interested in buying the car. I quickly said "yes". In the time I have had the car, I have been greatly impressed with the mileage I get. Even on short rides, it performs beautifully. Long trips the mileage runs from 30 to 50 mph. It is a beautiful car. My neighbors are impressed with how well it still looks after 9 years.

Sad

I would buy another LaCrosse, but they are not making them in the USA anymore, just China. I don’t understand . There are a few blind spots on this car that need to be changed. It is a real smooth fringe car.

Nice riding car

I like this car except for the MANY blind spots. Drives and rides nicely. Has served my needs well, but always anxious with blind spots. Radio very poor. Cigarette lighter and USB ports are in the back seat.

Very reliable, quiet yet powerful ride

Love my LaCrosse. Handling and power is impressive. It’s quiet. My tall frame fits nicely with so much room still left for backseat passengers. Gas mileage is what I expected from a 6 cyl. Only (minor) downside are the blind spots. But by driving with a touch more care, the LaCrosse is an extremely enjoyable ride.

It has been enjoyable and safe ride for the last 70,000 miles.

I'm getting 32.2 miles per gallon in this comfy hybrid version. The electric motor gives a nice boost when I need it. I like the high-end attributes as well.9
