This car is a Lacrosse super with a 5. 3 liter super charged engine. In the promotional material produced for the car it indicates the car is equipped with larger brakes because of the power of the car. In 2013 I went to replace the front brakes on the car and purchased the pads that were manufactured for this make and model equipped with the 5. 3 super charged engine. When I went to install them they were to large for the calipers and noticeably larger than the ones on the car. Upon returning the the parts store and lengthy searching it was determined the braking system on the car is that of the 2008 lucerne with 275-hp 4. 6-liter v-8. The Lacrosse with a 5. 3-liter, 300-hp super charged v8. Gm to date has refused to address the issue which under certain driving conditions could be a danger.
