Agent Orange: Friendly fire that keeps on burning. | Buicks break too.
I had one of those cream puff used Buicks once. Supercharged 3.8.
GM sent me a letter stating they recommend parking outside in case the engine caught fire. Their fix was to steal the beauty cover from the engine, inspect rocker arm cover gaskets and recommend an $800 tune-up.
The car had some electrical issues. Went out one morning and noticed a melted tar like substance dripping from the inside rear view mirror. I sold the car, thinking it was a cream puff that no longer fit my needs. A few days after selling, the buyer came back and reported the steering rack had failed and a replacement was going to be in the neighborhood of $1,500.
I concur on your conclusion that if it runs, it can break. The more parts there are, the more parts there are to fail. |
My 2004 Buick keeps going.
