1989 Oldsmobile 98 Regency Brougham review from North America
"With great cars like this, why must Olds go?"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The Electronic Climate Control and factory CD player displays flicker inadvertently together, but not all the time. The car runs hot in the summer, cold in the winter. This car has gone through 3 computers.
General comments?
I love this car. It was handed down to me from my parents. I remember when we brought it home new. It has been reliable and has always had great gas mileage. Ricers beware when I am on the prowl in this car!
Wish I could figure out why the displays on the climate control and the CD player flicker...
