Preobably the best auto that I have ever owned. I average 32 miles to the gallon on the freeway and about 24 in town. I have had only two minor warrenty problems. A loose trim piece and a defective cruse button. This is only the second Buick that I have owned.

A very nice comfortable car. I have had the vehicle for over 6,000 miles now and have had no difficulty of any kind. The only thing I would have preferred would be a cloth interior. I have ON- STAR and the voice recognition needs attention. It was good, they worked on it and it became bad and they worked on it somemore and now it is fair. My driving is mostly 10 miles to town then around town. I get 23 MPG.

I've just bought the car two weeks ago. It provides a very soft ride -- almost feels as though it "floats." It is very agile; and, one has to pay attention to the speedometer -- I found myself going 70 mph on the entrance ramp (uphill) to the Interstate! I am very pleased with the gas mileage, considering it' size.

we purchased our vehicle just prior to vacation trip of 2500 miles. we had a very relaxing ride and the gas mileage was every bit as good as advertised which was 31 miles per gallon. the only bad thibg i have noticed is the seat belt is nit the easiest to find to put on.

The new Le Sabre is more than satisfactory. It is great in appearance (the color is a unique White/Gold)and is an eye-catcher in any parking lot. The seats are multi-positoning, selectable for two drivers at the touch of a button, and the lumbar action is a great stress reliever. Driving it is a distinct pleasure. It is smooth riding, quiet, comfortable and a joy to drive.I would highly recommend it to anyone.

This is my second Lesabre I traded my '97 in on this 2004. I would still be driving the 97 but it had transaxle trouble which started at 40k miles and lasted until I traded at 85k. Hope the new one does much better in the tranny department. The new Buick is very nice, like the ride better than the '97, although I don't think the new cloth seats are as comfy as the '97. So far very good gas mileage about 28.5 mixed road and town. On steering wheel radio controls are nice.

Excellent car.This is my third Buick. Previously bought new an 1989 Park Avenue and later, a new 1996 Park Avenue. All have been good trouble free vehicles Sorry to see that Buick has discontinued production of both the Park Avenue and Lesabre, I don't care for their new Lucerne - too small.

Of course it has the Buick smooth ride, getting on the freeway is far easier then expected. Even acceleration for passing is strong. Plenty of room for our 2 young children. Nice large trunk, and it gets great gas mileage.

I bought my 2004 LeSabre last year, and I have to say I am very happy with the vehicle. Getting about 28 mpg overall. ABS and Trac Control features are excellent. Have had issues with the climate control. It doesnt seem to work efficiently. The dual zone control doesnt really give you a big difference from driver to passenger. GM needs to look at this and find out what the issue is.

This has been one of the best used cars that I have ever owned. Smooth, comfortable, roomy, and even fuel efficient! You cannot beat the value of these older Buicks, and they are sure to outlast the less dependable newer models. It's nice to have a lot of metal around you when (some) people drive like they robbed a bank. Rock solid, affordable, and simple to maintain. It's a keeper!

An ok car

Bought in fall of 2008 at car lot that deals in high mileage vehicles that look ok. Had 106000 intially. I've added about 15000. Gas mileage on interstate = 31 mpg. good power. comfortable for trip. Negatives are AC sometimes blow hot air on driver side and cold air on passenger. Also, hard shift every few days (1st to 2nd, 2nd to 3rd). Guesstimate from dealer on repairing both problems = 900 bucks. Two front chrome mag wheels leak air around the rim unless you get tire store to sand and goop up the rim. Overall car is good transportation given that I gave $5100 for a 4 year old car. Our 2 Hondas have been much more trouble free (everything works right)over 300k miles on those 2 together.

I own the 2003 version. I have had oly one problem since I bought it new and that was a bad crank shaft sensor. Love the car and the gas mileage. My one complaint is that you can't get the limited edition except with leather seating and not all of us want leather! Too darn hot in Florida. Orange Buick is also a great dealership.

Not the prettiest design, but not completely horrible. Just a simple blue collar (as my boss likes to say) car. Because it's an American car, the used car price was better than buying a comparable but smaller Japanese family sedan. Only some minor problems, which I expect from American cars. The dash and radio console looked like it hasn't been updated since 1985. I saw a 2004 Honda Accord with more modern design. The driver side speaker blew out after a month I owned it. And a month later the gas gauge stopped working so I have to estimate when to fill up gas. No big deal. I will drive this car into the ground. As long as it keeps running I'm happy.

I love my new LeSabre, with the exception of getting into the console. The dealership had a little trouble getting the right remote keyless entry, the second one, but finally did it about a week and a half after purchase. I owned a '92 Custom for over five years, and there have definitely been some improvements made. I would buy it again. It's really too bad that color choices weren't more readily available, or less generic.

This is my second Buick and, after three years in an Oldsmobile Aurora (A V-8, by the way) it's nice to be back. This car is big, comfortable, surprisingly high spirited for a full sized sedan with a six cylinder engine, and very very well mannered. I've always enjoyed driving. Now I enjoy it more than ever.

We bought our 2004 Celebration Package new and loved it for 59,915 miles. A month ago someone pulled out in front of us (ice & snow) and it's now totaled. We have looked at cars for a month now and are disappointed that Buick doesn't make the LeSabre or the Park Avenue. Minor problems (post warranty) we have had include burned out heated seat, broken cruise cable, and a few switch/indicator lamps burned out. The OnStar didn't work when new and the dealer took 6 months to fix it, but in the end we got a call from OnStar when the airbags did their job! They sent the police right to the intersection where we were, thanks!
