Overview & Reviews
For 2007, Buick gives the LaCrosse a few more standard features. An upgraded OnStar system (with turn-by-turn directions) becomes standard on all trims, while XM satellite radio now comes on the CXS. A couple of new wheel designs and new upholstery fabric round out the changes. GM has also extended the powertrain warranty on all of its models to five years/100,000 miles.
- Smooth and quiet ride, powerful 3.6-liter engine in CXS model, available six-passenger seating.
- Unimpressive handling, noisy base V6, some low-grade interior materials, unsupportive seats, tight rear legroom, stability control limited to CXS model.

Not bad - 2007 Buick LaCrosse
By rsb90 - September 5 - 9:07 pmI have to say I like this car. Despite it needing some work since Ive owned it, anything Ive had done is to be expected with owning any car. I like the design of the newer models, so if this one continues to be a good car for me, I may trade it in for a new Lacrosse when the time comes.

headlights turn off then on at will - 2007 Buick LaCrosse
By ann6701 - August 28 - 9:21 pmI have a 2007 Buick Lacrosse, bought a few months old, with 6,000 miles on it. No problems except replaced the cabin air filter, & battery. It now has 23,000 miles on it. Then a month ago, the headlights started going off, then back on about 10 minutes later. How many have had that problem? I was told it was the BCM, a few hundred dollars. Any other ideas that have worked? This is scary!!!!

Stuck in the Middle - 2007 Buick LaCrosse
By Bumpy - July 27 - 8:32 amI neither love or hate this car. Exterior looks great with chrome package, except rear end is too bland. Interior is typical with fake wood from Buick. More road noise than I expected. Handles well with a firm ride, not plush, you feel the road. This is not an old mans car. The 3800 series 3 is an outstanding motor despite its unrefined feel. Most of the reviews are, as usual, from newbies and problem cars. For those of you with steering/pulling issues please consider replacing the intermediate shaft. There some bad tires out there but tires are frequently a symptom of another problem. Note the difference in alignment with a loaded vehicle if there is a persistent alignment issue.

Nice Car - 2007 Buick LaCrosse
By Bob - September 8 - 7:08 pmI leased this car back in 07 and have not had one problem. My dealer ran a computer search for the CXS in the color and options I wanted. For me it fits my needs perfectly, love the remote start, sport tuned suspension(FE3), 3.6 dohc engine is excellent and still gets good gas mileage.

Great Car but for the Catalytic Conv. - 2007 Buick LaCrosse
By Dave - January 7 - 2:53 pmExcellent to great car. I have driven GM cars for over 30 years. Only problem experienced so far is the catalytic convertor was replaced this week, with 24,000 plus miles. Bought the car as a demo for the PGA tournaments. The converter is covered under the warranty. I thought GM had the converter problem resolved years ago. Still enjoy the car. A bit small in size.

Quiet Quality & Affordable - 2007 Buick LaCrosse
By FRED LEONARD - July 11 - 12:01 pmIn my effort to downsize I went a little too small. Cabin is cramped for me & backseat is tight. Needs a modern engine & 6-speed transmisson. Flat spots in the power ranges due to lack of gears. It is a very nice car that is smooth & quiet for its size & price. No problems except for recalls.

There are a few warts - 2007 Buick LaCrosse
By Tim - September 19 - 9:08 pmOverall, very satisfied, but have a few warnings. MPG is hopelessly below what the EPA sticker says (barely get 20mpg in city). Although the trunk is voluminous, the opening is smaller than the Century and I find it difficult to get large objects inside. And whoever put that piece of chrome across the middle of the dash so all sunlight from 10am to 2pm shines directly in the drivers eyes needs to be flogged.

Old folks car - 2007 Buick LaCrosse
By ron - September 14 - 8:11 pmDriving compartment feels cramped, parking seems to require more effort on the steering wheel. Closing the trunk lid requires you to put your hands on the trunk to close the lid. Needs a handle.

Its a nice car - 2007 Buick LaCrosse
By frevash - August 30 - 9:22 pmMixed highway/suburban mileage driven in flat to somewhat hilly areas. Average mileage per gallon between fill-ups rarely reaches 20mpg. Given Japanese competition thats rather surprising. Our 2001 LeSabre does it better. Was forewarned by Consumer Reports, but bought the car nevertheless, because I liked looks and ride.Time Elapsed feature doesnt work outside temperature gage is off by at least five degrees (too high) clock has lost two minutes in three months of ownership. For my next purchase. Ill try and overcome my "Buy American" hangup, if necessary.
