1998 Buick LeSabre Limited review from North America
"Definitely worth buying"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The fan on the air conditioner and heater starts to squeak after a few minutes when the fan is on high.
Also, the air comes out of the floor, vents, and windshield all the same time, something is wrong and it won't go to one area when selected.
A front end alignment and new struts are needed, but is normal for a car with so many miles.
General comments?
This car is perfect on a long trip or just a quick trip to town.
The engine has been through almost 200,000 miles and still runs like new.
It is reliable, I have had no serious problems with it since I purchased it a year ago.
