Quick facts
- Part: Nugeon 99-17376A brake caliper
- Also called: disc brake caliper
- Fits: the 2008-2009 Buick LaCrosse and other vehicles

A disc brake caliper that sticks or leaks can show up as pulling to one side under braking, one pad wearing faster than the other, or fluid near the piston boot. A seized slide or a swollen hose can give a similar pull, so have the pads, boot and hose looked over during a brake service, with the car cool, before replacing the caliper. Calipers are normally replaced as a left and right pair; this listing is one front left caliper, and the right side is a separate part.
Fits
The 2008-2009 Buick LaCrosse, the 2006-2011 Buick Lucerne and the 2006-2011 Cadillac DTS each take this caliper on the front left, and it fits more models besides. If your car is not one of these, look it up in the "Vehicles it fits" section.
