2000 Buick LeSabre Custom review from North America
"High maintenance lemon"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Only had car one year when the windows started breaking down one by one at a cost of 350 to 500 each.
Replaced brakes, new tires, tie rods, 3 wheel bearings on front end, water leak in trunk - cannot find source.
Now the car shuts down or cuts off completely when driving, and does not want to restart. Have gone to three mechanics including a Buick dealer for repairs, no one can find the problem, plus the Buick dealer charged 40 bucks just to look at it, other two places no charge. This car's a nightmare.
