Definitions
- Trips / Year per 100 (CRS Score) -- average number of successful repair trips per year per 100 cars; routine maintenance such as oil and filter changes does not count as a repair
- Graph -- pointer shows how the model compares to others from the same model year
- Traffic Signal (TS) -- same as the graph, but with three simple, easier-to-read alternatives; green = better than average, yellow = about average, red = worse than average
- Delta (Δ) -- how much the CRS Score differs from the same year Buick LaCrosse; negative = fewer repairs = better; +100 = one extra repair trip per year, on average
- Cars -- number of cars for which owners provided data
- Months / Car -- average number of months of data per car
- Odometer -- average odometer reading, in miles; under 9,000 per year in green, over 15,000 per year in red
General Notes
How do we select "competing car models"? Users of TrueDelta's car price comparison tool most often compare these cars to the Buick LaCrosse.
Models and statistics marked with an asterisk* have very low sample sizes. These results, visible only to logged-in members, provide only a rough estimate of car reliability.
Ultra-low repair rates: Any result under 20 repair trips per 100 cars is likely a result of the small sample size, and should be expected to increase to 20 or so in future updates.
New models often start out with high repair rates, and then improve as the manufacturer identifies and addresses common problems.
