A buyer's checks
NHTSA lists 2 recall campaigns for this model; ask the seller for proof each one was fixed. NHTSA has 310 owner complaints on file, mostly about visibility, structure and air bags. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay.
Reading the spec sheet
Power comes from the 3.8L 6-cylinder, driving through a 4-speed automatic. It runs on regular gas. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.
The combined figure, 11.2 L/100 km, means roughly 34 litres for 300 km. At our price setting, it costs about $17.36 to drive 100 km. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$3,200 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.
What to expect from the LeSabre
As a large sedan, it is easy to drive and park in the city. Its 510 litres of luggage space fit a family's bags for a long weekend.
Who it is for
It uses more fuel than most, so it suits shorter trips or people who need its size. It suits a family trip where everyone and everything fits in one car.
Try before you buy
If it is in our fleet, rent it; if not, a similar car gives you a feel for the class. Rent first, buy later: a week with the LeSabre answers the big questions. A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel.
Running costs
Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary.
Choosing the right one
Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. Within the 2002 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which.
