Faults:
My air conditoner is not getting cold. The low coolant light is coming on. But when I bought it the air conditioner was working just fine.
The car rides very low, I was wondering if it needed shocks or springs.
General Comments:
This is a very nice car for what it cost.

It is true, the plastic plenum on the 3.8 Bonneville is expensive. And will not give a warning. The EGR valve malfunctioned on my car and this is what melted the plastic. Too bad that GM did not understand what the customer wanted. Placing plastic on top of a hot motor, not a good idea. Maybe this is the reason the big three are losing market share to the imports. It is a a really nice car, not sure if the next one will be a GM though.
