1990 Oldsmobile Ciera International review from North America
"A reliable domestic car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The rear defrost broke the second year I owned the car.
The car runs poorly when the front defrost is activated.
The heating system makes crunching noises.
The gas tank gage is broken.
The "overheat" light fails to work.
The power lock system has malfunctioned.
General comments?
Reliable car, good acceleration.
However the seats are very boxy and don't conform well to the passengers.
It has lasted a long time, but the wear and tear on the systems has been a drain.
I'd still trust it to drive long distances.
