1998 Chevrolet Lumina review from North America
"Best and most reliable family car I experienced in life"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Things that went wrong since I bought this car are front brake pads and rotors replaced at 175000, water pump, one fuel injector replaced at 178000 miles. Rest all original in this car.
General comments?
Car squeaks a little on sharp left turning, but I have not bothered to get it checked. I switched over to using premium fuel after replacement of one fuel injector and use SEAFOAM cleaner almost every 3000 miles in gas to keep injectors clean.
Car is super smooth performer, runs like just coming out of showroom. I am myself amazed with the quality and performance of this car.
