1990 Oldsmobile Ciera international review from North America
"Old reliable!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Up until the last 5 years everything was original except the transmition and that was from the original first owner. I am second owner. Now almost all of the mechanical components are replaced and the oxygen sensor and exhaust needs replacing otherwise it runs like a charm with all the miles.
General comments?
I would buy ALL my future cars in Oldsmobile brand if they still made them. It was the best line they made, but unfortunately I now also own a Saturn and that is a piece of crap. I want Oldsmobile back!
The power locks and windows have gone out several times and this last time I have never replaced them
the power seat frame broke twice and then I replaced the frame with a stationary one and removed the wires.
