This car was good when I first got it, cheap and affordable until, a little after 2 weeks had passed...
Alternator had to be replaced.
Oil leaks about several occasions (after been taken to get it fixed).
Windshield wipers started to wear off.
Air condition/Heater broke (made clanking sounds).
I had a letter/card that Buick Skylarks have to be "Recalled", due to "Ignition Switches" (luckily, mine was OK).
The bottom front point tip of the car is so far stretched-out, when I drive into a little dip on the road, Boom! I hit the ground straight on!
This car is not good if you are quite tall... no room for your legs!
So far, this car is still working OK.
I don't have a problem with it "Overheating" on me.
With a lot of miles on it already, it had taken me to a lot of places safely.
Overall, it is comfortable for a 5 foot 4 girl and the sound system is just OK.
I think you are being a little unfair in your review.
Most of what you state is due to you're not servicing the car in a timely manner. I mean, when windshield wipers wear out you are suppose to pay the 6 or 8 dollars to change them.
If the front end hits the ground, well, you are just going too fast... Now lady, be a little more fair in your reviews.
