1995 Oldsmobile Achieva S review from North America
"This car is a severe waste of money"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
My door panels are falling off.
My transmission slips and stalls.
I've had to replace the cooling fan motor.
I've had to replace the water pump.
I've had to replace the coil.
I've had to replace the radiator.
The car has been running hot since the day I bought it, even after all I have done to it.
I am having problems with the electric window swith.
I am now having a problem with the door locks not working properly.
General comments?
I have had nothing but problems with this car since the day I bought it.
