1994 Oldsmobile Achieva SE review from North America
"A big piece of crap!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
We have replaced the three coil packs twice. The door control panels have fallen out, this car has no power what so ever. We have replaced more sensors than should be allowed on an automobile, I bet the space shuttle doesn't have this many sensors. The steering column has shorts in it, for example, the dash lights flicker, sometimes the blinkers quit working. This being the second steering column. Overall this is a lemon if ever I seen one. You talk about make your lips pucker, ha ha.
General comments?
The car actually rides pretty good. If only I wasn't scared to pull out into traffic. Lets see, the stereo sounds pretty good, for factory. I wish I could say some better things about my oldsmobile.
