1988 Buick LeSabre Limited review from North America
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Got the car from my brother-in-law with 96K on it (now have 110K on it). Trans had been replaced at around 70K. Digital dash has never worked 100% right (gas gauge currently dead). As usual with Buicks, power windows either deathly slow or don't work at all. Door armrests have disintegrated and fallen off front doors. Heater core replaced at 100k miles.
General comments?
Engine pretty reliable. Trans is suspect. Comfortable, roomy interior. Suspension kind of soft.
