1995 Oldsmobile 88 review from North America
"Mistake purchasing the car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Transmission problem at 23000 miles
Fuel pump in 2002 at 38000 miles
Coolant leak (multiple times) still Leaking Oil leak gaskets replaced 2x at 40000 miles
Master "brain" chip replaced 45000 miles
Master brake cylinder replaced at 50000 miles.
General comments?
The car is comfortable to drive and has power.
Only complaint is it costs a fortune to replace parts that should not have failed within 50000 miles. Probably due to low driving time of 5000 miles per year.
