  Buick Century - 1998 Buick Century
  By Quinton - June 20 - 8:34 pm

  I have owned the car for over 4 years now, and it hasent let me down yet. I have had some problems ( i.e. leak in rack and pinion, wheel bearings and abs sensors) but nothing to worry about. The car gives a good ride, excellent fuel economy, however it could use a little more power.

  A pretty good car - 1998 Buick Century

  This car has been a very reliable mode of transportation. The only major repair was a front wheel bearing. The cassette/radio had to be replaced. My kids call it a "grandma car", but it is comfortable.

  Have not had one problem with this car. If you are long legged, this car is not for you, otherwise perfect car for ride and looks.

  Purchased my second Buick Century and have enjoyed a very easy to drive, comfortable (Mny folks ask "what kind of car is this"after theyve been riding in it awhile because they notice how comfortable it is to ride in.) My Dad drives this as the "errands" care and my 15 year old neice has just started to learn on it -- she prefers it over our mini-van for ease of driving. Very solid and dependable.

  Buick Century is a proven, reliable car that has given me 5 years of service and is still going without any problems.

  Alot of car for the money - 1998 Buick Century
  By MYBUICK - December 24 - 2:00 am

  This Buick is the most trouble free car Ive ever owned. I purchased it new in 98 and sold it Oct. 03. Not because there was any major problem because my wife wanted another car. It has a nice ride is quiet and has very good acceleration. The only problem I had was with the heater fan switch. It wouldnt work in the first position. $100 to replace The only thing I would suggest is a somewhat firmer suspension to improve the handling.

  Bought new, great car! - 1998 Buick Century
  By BobO - June 11 - 2:00 am

  Love the car. Very, very comfortable seats, smooth ride. Great on long trips. Only problem so far, after 4 yrs/30,000 mi. -- after two years the comfort control display began to fade - replaced under warranty. Would certainly consider buying again.

  Would buy again. - 1998 Buick Century
  By Fairwind - May 10 - 2:00 am

  We purchased this car new and have been very pleased with it. I would consider it again. It is very comfortable for long trips and easy to drive in town. The moon roof should be standard on all Buicks, such a nice feature.

  The strong points of the car are reliability and a soft comfortable ride, which are the two reasons why I bought the car. Vehicle tends to bounce when going over bumps. Handling is soft and not precise.
