1993 Buick LeSabre Limited review from North America
"Comfortable luxury sedan"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
This car has been in my family since it was new.
It has gone through 6 or 7 alternators, the first 3 under warranty, one of which was replaced months after owning the car.
The transmission seals went at about 100000km.
Brakes and tires have been replaced through regular maintenance.
Muffler replaced.
Turn signal indicator spring broke, so the signal switch would not cancel, cost $250 CAD to fix.
Horn never worked all of the time, was serviced under warranty, still temperamental to date.
A/C was recharged last year, was cold for a while, has warmed up a bit since.
Passenger power lock would lock, but would not unlock, $300 CAD to fix.
Sometimes transmission will not go into drive right away, you have to wait a couple of seconds for it to engage (on occasion).
General comments?
The car has been in my family since new.
It has had problems, but aside for that, it is a very comfortable luxury car.
It has every option, including the leather seats, which look brand new (except for a rip on the driver's seat), the interior is flawless.
The paint is incredible, it still shines (except for scratches from other people).
The car has the Gran Touring package and it makes a huge difference, the wide 16" tires grip the road like a sports sedan, while keeping the smooth ride.
It is rather big, it is referred by my friends to be an "old man's car".
