My Lacrosse has the 3.6 v6 engine. I have had two occasions so far where the ABS failure light comes on. The first occasion was caused by the magnetic rings on the front wheel hubs that the ABS senses to determine wheel rotation. This happened approximately 10 months ago at around 57000 miles and cost over $1100 to fix.
The second occasion occurred 11/22/2018 at 66,376 miles with the magnetic ring breaking in the left rear wheel hub. The cost to fix was $518.
I think this is a design flaw and fully expect the right rear magnetic ring to break at any time and it will cost another $518 to fix. So I will have over $2000 in ABS brake problems due to this design flaw. I believe there should be a recall and reimbursement of the charges I have paid to fix this.
I am curious if any other Buick Lacrosse owners have had this problem.
