Hi Karen,

This page shows how to replace the outer tie rod end on your car.

Steering Linkage Outer Tie Rod Replacement — 2012 Buick LaCrosse Base, 2.4L Eng VIN R Service Manual ~ LEMON Manuals

This page tells you what to look for to determine if your tie rod end needs replacing.

Steering Linkage Outer Tie Rod Inspection — 2012 Buick LaCrosse Base, 2.4L Eng VIN R Service Manual ~ LEMON Manuals

Most of the time you can tell without a dial indicator; just follow that procedure and have someone rock the tire while you watch the tie rod end. If there's any movement whatsoever in the end itself, replace it.
