2002 Buick Century Custom review from North America
"The Buick Century is one of the best cars ever made. I love it!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Needed a front wheel bearing at 73,000 miles.
That's it.
General comments?
This is my third Century and they've gotten better as the years went by.
Great ride, roomy, comfortable, economical, reliable.
I keep up with the regular maintenance (oil changes, tire rotations, transmission fluid flushed and filled every 20,000 miles, coolant flushed and filled once a year.) My Century has only been worked on by the Buick dealer where I bought it, and which sold the car new originally.
