1988 Pontiac Bonneville LE review from North America
"A steady, reliable prize"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Transmission went at 163000 miles.
Replaced fuel pump three times.
Replaced alternator twice.
Replaced coil at 200000 miles.
The roof paint is sun-baked and faded, similar to other GM sedans of that year.
General comments?
This car is the most reliable vehicle I have ever owned. Cold weather or hot, it still gets me where I want to go. The car runs so well I will probably get another 100000 miles or more before she's done.
