1992 Oldsmobile Silhouette from North America
Summary:
A reliable vehicle, but far from the best
Faults:
Had to replace front windshield from a hailstorm.
Tailgate needed a new latch. Light comes on saying gate Ajar, but it's closed all the way.
Sliding door handle inside broke and got replaced.
Driver's door hand from outside didn't work and heat to get replaced.
Rear heating/cooling system does not work. Works only in front.
Needs a new radiator. Having to put water in instead of anti freeze.
Windshield washer bag leaks.
Ignition switch used to work without key. Got locked in place and wouldn't move with key or screwdriver. Had to buy a new one.
Starter broke down in the middle of winter.
Tape player does not work. Previous owner had stuck coins in it and will not work with them all out.
Rear speakers are blown.
Sagging headliner.
The direction and temperature display keeps going out. Will work and go out a random times.
The resettable mileage counter will not go back to 0000. When pressed, it might change to 0900 or something similar.
General Comments:
Seats are very uncomfortable, especially the back ones.
Not much room in back seats.
Vehicle is very loud when driving from the fans.
Should have made another sliding door on driver's side.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes
