1984 Buick LeSabre LTD review from North America
"This car was very well made"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Replaced the front brake pads at 39,000 miles.
Failed emissions twice, the carburetor screws keep coming loose.
Replaced AC compressor about 35,000 miles.
General comments?
The mileage is original at 43,000.
This old Buick is a very comfortable car. The seats are nice and cushy.
It handles well, but the front end seems to push a little on slow turns.
When it's in tune as it is now I get 14 mpg in town. That isn't bad at all for a big car.
The AC needs a charge every year or two even with the new compressor.
