1991 Chevrolet Lumina Euro review from North America
"Reliable, powerful, and safe, what more could you want?"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Had to replace the water pump.
The brakes have been completely redone twice but the first time the shop that fixed them didn't replace what I was charged for.
The trunk leaks with this year of Lumina somewhere around the tail-light assembly.
Had some problems with spark plugs burning out due to improper spacing by the shop that did the tune-up.
General comments?
First off, the car is not that hard to work on, get a book and most repairs you can do yourself.
GM had a law suit for the brakes because they didn't tell people they had to set the parking brake. set the parking brake even if it is an automatic when you park it. This is supposed to adjust the calibers and keep them running right. Trust me, a brake job can run up to 1600.00.
This car offers great mileage and has never left me stranded. I have added a lot of accessories that run straight off the battery and it hasn't run the battery down yet.
