Faults:

Coil pack had to be replaced at 95K miles. Dealer replaced every other electrical component such as cam sensor, crankshaft sensor, and ignition module before he found the coil pack at fault.

Alternator went out at 83k miles.

Front right CV axle boot has deteriorated.

Starter has been replaced.

Right side of the radio internal electrical components have fried, so the right speakers no longer work.

General Comments:

This car rides and drives very well for a car of it's size and age.

I purchased the car from a Maine couple who purchased it new. I live in Georgia and was worried about rust problems, but so far so good.

I also have a 1991 Bonneville with the standard 3.8L V-6 and it currently has 183K miles on it and has had only very minor problems. The both take a lickin' and keep on tickin'!

Faults:

Transmission went at 163000 miles.

Replaced fuel pump three times.

Replaced alternator twice.

Replaced coil at 200000 miles.

The roof paint is sun-baked and faded, similar to other GM sedans of that year.

General Comments:

This car is the most reliable vehicle I have ever owned. Cold weather or hot, it still gets me where I want to go. The car runs so well I will probably get another 100000 miles or more before she's done.

Faults:

The only thing that I've replaced on the car was a battery, coil pack, and fixed the plug that goes into the ignition module. The drivers information screen and the flourescent compass has went out, still trying to find a replacement, any ideas?? I love this car and when it does finally die I'll put a new motor in her and keep driving it for another 257,000!!

General Comments:

I have always loved these cars and wanted one badly, my uncle bought this one brand new with only 210 miles on the odometer and drove it for 14 years, the transmission went at 217,000 other than that only the radiator and alternator have been replaced other than that. The motor has never been apart and it's still going strong.

Faults:

The paint has faded, making it look like skunk stripes all along the top.

It wobbles like crazy at about 60 miles per hour.

The driver side window sounds like the drive is going to crack. I don't use it in the winter. That really stinks at the drive-through.

Transmission slips when it's put in gear. Also if you jam the pedal down.

I acquired this vehicle from my aunt. She was getting a new Volvo because they're supposed to be extraordinarily safe or some junk like that.

I wasn't really interested in the car at first. But I didn't have a choice. My 2nd Dodge Daytona that I owned broke a piston, and I needed a car real bad. I took it off my aunt's hands for a loaned $500 dollars (which I never paid back, so the car was free) This was the best investment I ever made.

You get luxury and performance all in one. How can you beat that? I'm a muscle car fan. But I also like to be comfortable. This car meets both areas in between and then some.

It starts up instantly and runs like a champ. I would have no problem taking this car on a long trip.

I would definitely buy another Bonneville. But I've heard the older ones are better than the newer ones. I'm going to hold on to mine for as long as she'll run.

I have plans to convert my LE model into the sportier SSE model in the very near future.

Faults:

I had to replace the Ignition Module and the plug that goes to the module, and a battery.

General Comments:

This car was bought brand new by my friends uncle in 1988.

Until just this year the only things that have gone wrong since new are a transmission, radiator, battery, ignition module, alternator.
