1992 Buick LeSabre Dynaride review from North America
"The experience everyone should have"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The A.B.S. light on the dash came on when I first bought the car, and the brakes would lockup while driving. I didn't have to touch the brakes for them to lockup. Took it to the Buick dealer and was informed that a wheel sensor was faulty and needed to be replaced, but they could not be confident that the sensor was the only problem. The M.O.T.require a safety check before a car is sold, however the A.B.S. is not covered on the safty check. By the way, I was told by the service consultant at the dealership that it may cost me as much as $3000.00 to fix the brakes.
General comments?
I love my Buick, and if I could afford it I would fix it in a heart beat. I am on disability and even $100.00 is a lot of $$. Is there anyway to disconnect the A.B.S. system so I can continue to drive my car without having to go bankrupt?
