There has been a few things that have went wrong with this car. The radiator and hoses needed to be replaced right after I got this car from a familymember.
The Coil Pack went bad over the winter and was having trouble trying to diagnose the problem after replacing several parts that probably didn't need to be replaced, but I did anyway.
Original water pump just want bad at 249,989 miles. It also messed up the supentine belt, but that is about all. This car is a champ and keeps going strong.
The seats are very comfortable and I love to just cruise down the road with the windows down going 80. This car even though with over a quarter of a million miles still runs like I am sure it did for the original owner, FLAWLESS.
If I could keep from everybody either backing into it, or deer jumping in front of me, it would look much better than it does, but I don't care, I will not part with it even with all of her battle scars. And for being almost 16 years old, I am going to make it last for another 16 years. My goal is 1,000,000 miles. I don't see myself driving anything else. And who says that kids don't like cars meant for their parents?
Waaaaa! I am so lonesome for my car. I totaled it a week before Christmas and I want another just like it. Buick Park Avenue's are the very best car ever made and no one gets rid of them. If anyone knows someone who may by chance have one to sell, I will never give up looking. Mine was a 1988 Park Avenue Ultra or Ultima.
I as well have been driving a Buick Park Avenue 1988 since I was 16 yrs old and I am now 26. I love it soooo much. It has never let me down. Yeah I have had to repair it a couple of times but I got 300,000 miles on it so it is expected.
I will never ever get rid of this car. I don't care if people give me looks or make fun of me. Who are they going to call when there car breaks down when it is -11 degrees out? Me because they know my car will always start.
