1988 Oldsmobile 98 review from North America
"A very reliable vehicle"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The main problem that I have had with my car is that engine parts keep breaking down, but, that is to be expected with any older vehicle. And also the headliner was coming undone so badly that I was forced to rip it completely out of the car.
General comments?
I like this car very much, despite some of its faults, and it is a very reliable vehicle to drive, as long as the owner is not stingy with the parts and buys them new.
This car, with the Oldsmobile's 3800 motor will probably keep running long after the body has rusted and fallen off.
