1994 Buick Century Custom review from North America
"Very enjoyable, reliable car for the money"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Oxygen sensor was bad when purchased as a used car. Dealer fixed after initial incorrect diagnosis. Bad sensor caused intermittent stumbling.
Heating system baffle quit working properly, allowing heat to come through the upper AC outlets... very annoying. Simple fix, but expensive to get at due to being behind the lower dash area.
General comments?
Nice, quiet ride.
Nice touch is the subdued lighting on electric window/door control for nightime driving.
Not a racer, but 3.1 engine provides more than adequate power.
