1987 Plymouth Gran Fury Salon review from North America
"A good car for a new driver"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Windshield would leak when it rained, the headliner began to sag, fuel pump went, had to park on flat areas or with the nose downhill, car would shake once it hit 65, rear seatbelt seized.
General comments?
My parents bought this car new in 1987. It was ultimately given to me when I turned 16. We never really had trouble with it until it rolled past 210,000 miles - at which point little things began to break.
The engine and transmission, however, never failed us. They were never taken apart for service - it just kept chugging along.
