1989 Pontiac LeMans SE 4-Door Sedan review from North America
"One of the best first cars"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The brakes.
The air-conditioning.
The starter, of course.
The glove-box opened and didn't close.
The sun-visors were on their last string.
There were probably more problems before I purchased the vehicle.
General comments?
This car was a very great car!
I had heard from many people that the Pontiac Le Mans (actually the Daewoo Nexia) was a good first car.
The replacement parts were rare and very hard to find.
The seats are stiff and the cloth is yellowing.
The car feels quite cheap... especially the dashboard.
For anybody who needs a reliable car for under $1,500 this is it!
