1995 Pontiac Bonneville SE review from North America
"Worth every penny"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Replaced an air conditioning hose at 72,000.
Replaced the front struts at 99,000.
Replaced the original Goodyear tires at 82,000.
Traction control and radio controls in the steering pod went out at 69,000. Estimated cost was 400.00. Elected to do without.
Replaced a right side tie rod at 103,000.
General comments?
Considering the cost of repairs and mileage, I would buy this car again in a heart beat. It's rock solid, and built to last. I never have to worry about merging into traffic, it always goes.
I changed the oil every 3,000. I just got back from having the radiator flushed for the first time. It's like the energizer bunny.
