Faults:

Nothing has actually gone wrong with the car since I have owned it. It was given to me by my mother-in-law when my Jetta became too expensive to fix.

My only gripe is overdrive. It shifts into overdrive way too soon, and you almost need to stick the pedal to the floor to get it to downshift if you want to pass someone, or if you're heading up a hill.

Oh, one other thing is that the radio cuts out intermittently. It seems now it's not working more than it actually IS working. I haven't bothered trying to fix it yet.

General Comments:

Very comfortable.

Reasonably powerful.

Decent gas mileage.

Fairly reliable *knocks on wood*

Faults:

Had to replace the Alternator at 51,000 miles, then again at 75,000 miles and then again at 100,000 miles. inside door handle broke at 110,000. 2 power window motors went our at 120,000 and 125,000 miles. Water pump at 100,000 miles.

General Comments:

Once this car hit 100,000 miles it started to cost a lot to keep it on the road. Alternator problems are on most GM cars anyway. I've about the inside door handles on other GM cars also. I would not buy another like this if it had 100,000+ miles.

Faults:

61000: Water Pump, hosing breaks down.

61500: Alternator dies.

85000: Wing nut flies into Engine intake valve, stopped only by screen from getting into the engine proper.

104000: Regular trouble with ABS system shutting off.

108000: Inside door handle stops working for Driver's door.

General Comments:

The car is durable, but prone to some trouble.

Electric System (alternator/battery tends to work poorly)

Also the interior is not very durable. For example, my indoor door handle went out in the car. It seems indicative with mid 90s GM cars. My 95 Bonneville had a similar problem with the passenger side door lock.

Faults:

I should have knowen I was in for trouble when shortly after I purchased the car the door framing began to fall off.

Then piece by piece went the rest of the car, next came the ashtray which was connected to the wires for my c. d adapter, and no more than three weeks later the cup holder broke.

Just when I thought I could avoid a mechanic for awhile the transmission gave at an amazing 72,000 miles.

General Comments:

The car is a signature for crappy workmanship and should never be used for any thing other than the upholstery.

Faults:

Nothing yet, but it's still very early on.

General Comments:

So far, this car has impressed me very much. I find the exterior to be very attractive. Passing power is impressive, and so is overall engine pickup. These cars are built to last, therefore I highly recommend them as used car values.
