  Buick Junk - 2006 Buick LaCrosse
  By j wells - October 30 - 10:04 am

  My Buick Lacrosse has been a mechanical nightmare. I have had defective parts replaced consistently since I purchased it Thank heavens it was still under warranty. However, now all the seals in the rack and pinion steering need replaced at a cost to me of $900.00 This car is 3 years old!!!! I drove a ford Taurus for 175,000 miles with major repairs coming after 100,000 miles. I am fed up with this car, plan to replace it anything but a Buick. Oh, I also have water sloshing from one side to the other in my engine. I have a repeat complaint about this, to no avail. I am really a dissatisfied customer.

  Regret - 2006 Buick LaCrosse
  By ?? - September 8 - 5:20 pm

  I traded in a 2000 Buick Century, which I had bought in Jan, 2000 fresh off the truck, for the 2006 Buick LaCrosse in Dec, 2006. The LaCrosse had 14,000 miles on it, but besides my trade-in, the LaCrosse cost an addl $18,000. I realized Id made a mistake almost instantly, but was assured that I would get used to the LaCrosse and like it. I still dont like it and regret that I bought it. I wont get another Buick. GM has sacrificed too much in order to have higher profits and the consumer gets stuck with the flimsy trash. The LaCrosse is smaller than the Century and uses more gas, too.

  Steering - 2006 Buick LaCrosse
  By tanker 31 - July 5 - 7:27 am

  Car steers like a truck. Car floats along the highway at posted speeds.Moves from side to side. Gas mileage on highway about 26.5. Have to take out coolant bottle to check the power steering fluid? Raspy noise and some rubbing coming from steering section when I back up, can feel it on the steering wheel. Still have to manually adjust the seat back. Over all just un-impressed with car for the bucks I had to put out. Will not purchase another GM car period.

  I have had extremely poor mileage and there is a strange sound from the engine. Plus there are strong sulphur smells occurring.

  Not a happy camper - 2006 Buick LaCrosse
  By m.r. jensen - August 25 - 12:14 am

  It does not track well on the highway and wants to wander from left to right. It requires constant correction, and is very tiring for long distance drives. It also has a very bad blind spot on left door post. I dont like cruise control on the steering wheel, you have to take eyes off road to set it.
