1990 Oldsmobile Silhouette 2.8 gas

Faults:

Fan has gone out twice - dealer fixed both times at their expense - replaced battery once.

General Comments:

Great van - extremely good gas mi. - never has had a tune up within 150k - would definitely buy another van when this one finally goes!

Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

My dad has one of these vans. He bought it about 8 years ago. He has had no problems with it, other than the usually wear and tear. The motor has stayed together for 250K miles and still runs like brand new. The van has been great considering the torture we put it through. Only major thing that went wrong was the radiator went out and a bolt in the front to seats broke. But that is all. Just watch out for the front window. They cost at least $500 to replace because of the special tent so the sun doesn't blind the driver.

1990 Luminas came with a 3.1 liter engine, not a 2.8.
