1999 Buick Century Custom review from North America
"Not bad but is no Mercedes!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Exhaust manifold gasket went at 75,000 miles and to replace. This is a common thing with late 90s Buicks... my LeSabre had the same problem. The main issue I've had with this car are the power windows. Major problems... replaced motors, regulators, main control panel... and still only the two front windows now work.
General comments?
Decent car, comfy, slightly noisy engine when accelerating. Would buy again if a bargain price.
