1996 Buick Regal Limited review from North America
"STINKS"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Lights, brakes, fuel pump, rear brakes froze up, front brakes overheating.
General comments?
I have problems with this damn car and I worry that the next thing that will happen is the car will start on fire.
Dealers lie when you call and ask about class action lawsuits. They won't admit that there was a class action lawsuit for 19 million from 1988-1993 regarding the rear brakes. They seemed to not have fixed the problem, seeing I am have the same problems and I own a 1996. If anyone out there knows where I can get involved in a class action lawsuit, let me know.
