2004 Buick LeSabre Custom review from North America
"Great road car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I have had the car for over 2.5 years and have had very little issues.
I had some minor issues with the Transmission that cost around $600.
The brakes have worn exceptionally and just replaced the original front rotors because I thought that they must need them at 150,000, back are still original.
3.8 is peppy and gets me up to speed.
I get 29 MPG at 74 and around 34 at 60 for long trips.
I got a 2003 Impala with the 3.8 for my wife because of the non issues.
Shame they are not using the engine any more.
Put on Assurance triple tread and helped allot with the handling.
General comments?
Lacks in style makes up in durability and comfort.
