1984 Plymouth Gran Fury Salon review from North America
What things have gone wrong with the car?
When I got the car, it had a lot wrong with it.
Body needed a fender.
New tires.
The drivers seat has begun to slightly tear at the stitching space.
I've had to replace things like the brakes, rotors and fuel filter, air filter, and the battery needed to be serviced, as well as a tune up.
Occasionally as you are driving the car, the car will jerk quite a bit and it's believed that the transmission skips, or more like takes giant leaps! But it has lasted me and I drive it like crazy.
General comments?
I believe that this car is sturdy and probably has a lot of life left as it sits. I haven't had any break-downs whatsoever.
