1998 Buick LeSabre review from North America
"It's a very nice car in all other ways"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Intake manifold oil leak.
Alternator got noise.
Rear brakes wheel cylinders aking @ 10,000
Rocker panel right side rusting paint off.
Water pump leaking antifreeze.
Two fuel pressure regulators so far.
All was covered under warranty, except rocker panel and brake rotter.
I forgot to mention machined surface rusted off in two years. I have cars that are 30 years old; GM cars, this hasn't happened to them.
General comments?
It's a nice car, but the quality isn't as good as I would have expected from a nice car as the LeSabre.

  | 1998 - LeSabre Limited 3.8 6 cylinder Very good; should have been improved, not dropped. The LaCrosse is not a replacement. |
| Manufacturer should be liable for faulty parts |
