Just purchased 2009 Buick Lucerne CXL-5

Written by: 40yearfan on Oct 23, 2009 04:15 PM

I couldn't find any like I wanted in my area (Phoenix, AZ.) and wanted to take advantage of the $5,000 rebate plus an additional $500 customer cash Buick sent me. I found a dealer with a sister operation in California who had one exactly like I wanted except for the color (CXL-5, no moon roof or navigation) and bought it yesterday. I am now waiting for it to be delivered ... Read More...

The Rise and Fall of an Automotive Giant - GM

Well, here I sit boken hearted. I have just been asked to leave my dealer's service area by the owner of the dealership because I was "haranguing" his employees. What I was doing was asking for them to fix the vibration in my car - a 2007 Buick Lucerne CXS, no more and no less. Well, evidently I was way out of bounds with my request which was for them to get rid of the annoying ... Read More...

I didn't notice a problem. It vibrates that way because it's a V8 and probably needs a less restrictive exhaust. I don't drive at 1500rpm, ever, though. That's lugging the engine and isn't good for it. Read More...

Jimmy you have been had just as I was. I bought an 07 Lucerne CXS (a demo) with 6000 miles on it. From the get go I noticed a vibrating/rumble at various speeds. I took it back to the dealer around 8 or 9 times. They rotated and balanced the wheels; didn't help. Took it back again and they did the same thing again; same result. Took it back again and they said the front rotors ... Read More...

I Bought a 2009 Buick Lucerne that had 7000 mi. on it after a few days I noticed a low rumble from the rear at about 58 to 65 mph and now at lower speeds.

Humming from fuel pump

Written by: bajan1 on Mar 24, 2009 10:50 PM

After a very long drive in my 2009 Buick Lucerne, which has 10,000 miles, it had a very loud humming noise from the trunk, the source of which was later identified as the fuel pump. Two mechanics listened to the humming, which by then was much quieter since it is much reduced in city driving, but both have no previous experience with this condition. One said that the ...

My car is a 2007 CXL V-8, purchased on 10/31/08; The sticker price was $32,500.00 and I paid $21,700.00 for the vehicle before adding tax, tag, title and before subtracting GM Card points. Clearly the dealer decided to take a bath on the unit. It had been in their inventory for 2 full years and was in the showroom for a long time. Moreover, the dealer was superb and ... Read More...

Mainstream Large Sedans Comparison

Written by: tjc78 on Oct 27, 2008 09:33 AM

The Buick Lucerne CX and CXL now come standard with a more powerful & efficient 3.9L, replacing the 3.8 Nope... still not what should be in the "flagship" Buick. As has been said many times... there are better choices. As for the new Max.. I didn't drive one but did check it out and sat in it. The interior is very nice, however I am not sure that it fits into the large sedan ... Read More...

This forum has gotten QUIET! A few questions to bring back the conversation... Let's discuss changes available for 2009 on these vehicles. I know the Chrysler models got a bump in V8 power. What else? Has Hyundai changed the Azera at all since it came out? The Buick Lucerne CX and CXL now come standard with a more powerful & efficient 3.9L, replacing the 3.8L motor. ... Read More...
