  This car rots! - 1999 Oldsmobile Silhouette
  By Furious - March 2 - 8:16 am

  Bought the car. Was thrilled. Two weeks later the transmission failed - got replaced - then the alignment was never right - replaced tires every year; breaks too - tranny replaced three more times - two engines - alternator gone twice - electrical failed in year 4 - rail for driver sliding door broke year 5 - leather is so thin on seats, metal seat cushion supports showing year 7. With some cars you can say you got two cars for the price of one theyre so good. With this stinking car we had to pay for two cars (repairs) but only got to take one - broken one - home. Right now its in Baltimore MD - broken down - the trany went again - we live in N. Carolina. Were not fixing it again!

  Buy something else - 1999 Oldsmobile Silhouette

  I was against the purchase of this vehicle from the beginning as I was suspect of GMs ability to provide a quality product. My suspicions were accurate. This week I forked out $1,550 for a new head gasket. Two years ago, it needed an intake manifold gasket for $800. VHS system is broken, trim and molding parts falling off van. A/C will not work, keyless entry broken, rear wheel cylinder needed replacement, TCM sensor broken, its just endless. GM should be embarrassed for the lack of build quality in this vehicle. I am still waiting for the recall notices. As for my Honda and Nissan purchases prior to buying this van, I never had any of these problems.
