1990 Buick LeSabre Presidental review from North America

-not sure if the Presidential is the same as Limited.

I mainly have complaints or the cosmetics of the car. However, when I had mechanical problems with it, they were BIG problems.

First year I owned it- had to replace the exhaust system from the end of the catalytic converter to the tail pipe, but that can be attributed to age.

The cloth on the interior part of the roof was tacked up (by myself) with upholstery tacks for safety reasons (it was a distraction!). Found a corroded cable linking the battery to the alternator, which would cause the car to stall while driving. Also, the driver side window fell off it's track and the passenger side armrest fell off- the window controls where reattached to the door frame without the foam armrest.

Lately, perhaps of age, some days it just refuses to start or it backfires. The plastic part underneath the engine (named?) has split from the screws holding it on, drivers side armrest now falling off and driver side door cannot be locked any longer because it will stay locked- need to kick it open from inside.

I'm surprised I've had this bucket so long. It doesn't run good or look good and barely passes inspections. It's like an evil, ugly Pink Bunny- keeps going & going (usually).

A tank that won't quit-- if you're willing to pay for the upkeep! Not for someone that wants a "nice-looking" car, though.
