Cool ride with style to boot.
It has power when you need it getting around traffic and quiet and comfortable to relax in and enjoy the ride. The engine is popular with plenty of parts around when you need them. And servicing is easy. Comfortable seats make the most for all seasons, heated.

It registers 170 miles per hr so punch it squeal tires and ready to go.
I love my Buick lacrosse! It took me a couple of weeks to get use to the backup camera and getting comfortable with the different features. That being said, I love all the safety features: it lets you know when you are getting too close to a car in front of you it lets you know when you are changing lanes and you might be going to hit another car, I love the infotainment center with the Bluetooth phone calling texting it has so many features on the dashboard everything is digital, I love having access to my trunk through the back seat I love the keyless entry I love the fact that I can crank that car start the engine from inside my house and when I get in the car it is cool for me and my special favorite radio station is already on so far I haven't found anything about it that I do not like best car I have ever owned! I love the sporty look of it and the unusual shade of blue this is my third Buick the first two were Buick lesabres I love those but they were nowhere near as classy as the Buick lacrosse!

Touring in style with great gas mileage.
Smooth ride with great performance for touring across the country. Leather interior with heated seats a plus. Great gas mileage, easily understood gages and a perfect amount of accessories/infotainment included to make travel pleasurable for any climate or length of miles traveled. OnStar is a great thing to have also.

Well built, comfortable ride, classy, rear view assist.
It is very dependable, it never leaves me stranded.

Vehicle has been extremely reliable.
My vehicle has no problems. I perform basic maintenance like changing the oil and windshield wiper blades but that is it. I have never needed to do anything besides the bare minimum. It has been completely reliable and is very comfortable. I am delighted with it and since it has been perfect, I got a real bargain.

It handles well. It is maneuverable. I enjoy driving it.
I like the way it looks and the way it drives. It is comfortable and roomy. It gets good gas mileage.

2015 Buick lacrosse review.
No problems so far with this car. Rides smooth but I wish it has better gas mileage. Car is rather low to the ground so getting in for someone with movement problems might have problems getting out. Viewing from the driver's seat toward the back passengers side maybe a problem completely viewing any oncoming traffic.
accountCircle Debbie H
Comfortable and quiet and reliable.
I like the car. It is large enough for my husband and me as we are both tall people. The only problem I can think of is the audio on everything has gone out a couple of time, I.E., no blinker noise, no radio, etc. But I turned the car off and it reset itself. It rides smooth, has a lot of pick up and go.

I have this car single owner. At 66k miles my blower motor went dead. Took it to a dealership to get fixed.. Days after the fix...the electrical power steering gears malfunction.. The dealership quoted me a 3k plus repair.
accountCircle Michelle F
The car is very basic and plain.
Like the rear back up camera, dislike that there is no cruise control, no sirius radio, no controls on the steering wheel.
accountCircle Tyrone D
2015 Buick lacrosse the best car I have had so far.
I purchased this vehicle used. It rides good and does good on gas. I like the laid back style of the vehicle. I change the oil every other month and so far it rides fine. I think it is a sufficient and practical vehicle to have that is reliable. It is a family car.

Faulty interior door handle
I like the look of the car and it handles well but visibility is quite poor & drivers interior door handle is rough & jagged. I have cut my fingers more than once.
accountCircle tetiana B
Ok, but not a great car for me.
Someone give me this car for free otherwise I would never drive car like this. Only one thing I like about this car that it looks good outside, leather inside also not so bad. . I always have problem with tire pressure, I am happy about back camera but even camera not so good. Dashboard is very complicated.
accountCircle Taylor M
The leather seats is a big perk.
The vehicle is very reliable and I would recommend it to anyone in the area that wants a car that is reliable.
accountCircle Kimberly H
The seats are really luxurious and comfortable and would be good for a road trip.
It is a really good luxury car. I love the way it handles on the road. It is very spacious and I haven't had any major issues to fix on the car. As long as I keep it tuned up and oil changed also keep up with basic maintenance, it should last several more years.
accountCircle Phil R
It is really cool car to me
Many fixes on this car. I have put so much money in it. The one tire always leaks too. Very attached to it so I am not ready to turn it in yet

The back up camera is high functioning and reliable.
Love the whole car! The drive is smooth, the interior is soft. The heated seats are the best, wish the steering wheel was also heated. The seats are not air conditioned and this would be a awesome feature being leather seats. The seats are memory control for two drivers. The cruise control is nice. The backup camera is out of this world. I wish it had navigation as this would also be a great feature. The all wheel traction is not a feature I use or impressed with.

Great features, pleasure to drive, easy to maintain.
Never had any issues with my car. Always reliable. Love many of the features, blind spot, lane action, rear camera. I sometimes have a slight delay with navigation and phone but usually all works well. Easy to drive and maintain. I plan to drive this car for as long as I can before buying another.

Is The 2015 Buick LaCrosse A Good Car?

It is, though sometimes the repairs can be a bit pricey. We've also had an issue with our tire air sensors. One repeatedly tells us there's only 15 or 16 lbs of air pressure but the tire is full.
