1995 Oldsmobile Achieva S review from North America
"A way to make a poor man even poorer!!!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Transmission replaced at 57000 miles.
Power steering pump replaced 3 times before the rack and pinion finally needed replaced.
Have gone through 2 alternators.
Door locks have fallen into the doors on more than one occasion.
Have replaced both window motors twice.
Door locks no longer work at all.
All interior panels keep coming loose or are rattling badly.
General comments?
The car has more than its share of faults, but I do like the style and the power it has. Although I do hate having to fork out tons of money on it every time I turn around.
