1996 Oldsmobile Achieva review from North America
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Brakes wear out fast on these cars
General comments?
I had heard that these cars were junk, but my wife loved the way they drove and looked so she talked me into buying her one. I knew that I had never had any problems with my Cutlass but this Achieva was another car that hadn't been out that long. Anyway, we took a chance on it and I'm glad we did cause it has never given us any problems except the brake pads.

  | Over all this is a great car that can take a great deal of abuse and keep running |
| It is a good car if you bought one made on the right day |
