1990 Buick Century Custom review from North America
"An affordable, smooth riding car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing seriously wrong with car, considering its high mileage.
Replaced gas tank, radiator, oil pan the last year I owned it.
General comments?
This was a very comfortable car, and great in the winter.
The car got a lot of use, daily.
Other than routine maintenance, and the normal things that need to be replaced after 12 years, I had no major complaints.
I never had a problem with the electric windows or electric locks. The air conditioner still worked after 12 years, with no maintenance on it.
If I hadn't found a great deal on a used-1999 Chevy Malibu, I'd probably still have the Century.
