1989 Buick LeSabre review from North America
"This car is very dangerous and I refuse to drive it"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Seats are bending backward, making it hard to sit up.
When you start the car is sometimes screeches and will not start for many tried.
The break line broke. (My personal fault)
I check the oil and transmission fluid regularly, but the car's exhaust smokes like crazy.
When reversing, it stalls and sometimes
If you have the radio on when you go, sometimes it will stall.
The car goes very fast when you're not trying to.
It sticks on a specific mph and it will not slow down or accelerate, without riding the brakes.
Power locks fail sometimes.
At this point dangerous to drive, now.
General comments?
It has always been in my family. The first owners of the car were my grandparents. They kept extremely good car of the car. It was then handed down to my father and then to me. This car has gotten so much money put into it.. that didn't seem to help it at all.
One thing that I really like about the car is the steering.
