Common problems and easy repairs on a 2011 LaCrosse
The 2011 Buick LaCrosse CX is a relatively difficult car to maintain. The panel covering the grille will need to be removed to reach the front turn signal, which will prove to be a tight fit and not allow for reliable access. The engine air filter will require the same panel to be removed, as well as multiple other fasteners before the filter itself can be changed. The entire glove box housing must be removed to access the cabin air filter, which may prove problematic given its multiple convoluted parts.
However, the 2011 Buick LaCrosse CX has its high points. The other headlights can be reliably accessed without any tools by simply reaching behind their bulb housing. The spare tire and jack kit are packaged together, so accessing them in the case of a flat shouldn’t be a problem. Neither will monitoring the brake fluid levels, whose reservoir has very open access.

Many cars will burn or leak a little bit of oil. Over time, this adds up and you might need to add some - learn how to here!
Don't send mixed signals - if your turn signal doesn't blink, or blinks rapidly, you likely have a burnt out bulb
On many cars, the high beam bulb runs at reduced power during the day - check 'em and change 'em!
DRLs are on more than your headlights. They burn out faster and should be replaced regularly
