1998 Oldsmobile Cutlass GLS Oldsmobile review from North America

"This is definitely a recall for the manufacture of this vehicle"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

83000 When I test driving, I noticed the noise in steering wheel, assuming it was a minor problem or would go away. Commented to dealer about the noise and he stated it was nothing.

I also notice a fluid light was on, asked the dealer about it, he said it was low on washer fluid, the dealer drove the car to the back of car dealership building and stated he added washer fluid to the appropriate area, which made the light go off.

Purchased car anyway without putting it on a machine first, later to find out I needed a new water pump, which was covered under the warranty, that was fine.

85000 The service department has now stated the car needs an intake gasket job, which the extended warranty does not cover.

Have not made first payment on car note, and the service work on vehicle is more costly than the note.

Also, just recently discovered the a/c unit goes off and on automatic, this seems to be another default.

General comments?

I really like the performance of the car, it handles well.

The car seats more comfortably than most large makes/model, with plenty of room.

The stereo sound is superb and it's a great stylish looking car, but need more mechanical work.
