2001 Buick Century Limited review from North America
"Very reliable and comfortable car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The only thing that has ever gone wrong with the car was a speed sensor on one of the wheels went bad.
I was not able to diagnose this problem myself and it cost about 300 dollars to fix (275 dollar part cost).
General comments?
Very nice interior, leather seats.
Very reliable car just over 100000 miles and only one minor problem. No leaks of any kind ever.
Gas mileage is good for this size of car. I average 26 mpg. I am not willing to drive an unreliable or smaller car for the sake of better gas milege.
Only thing to be desired is more performance (as you get with the 3800 engine in some other models).
