2001 Buick Century Custom Sedan 4-door 3.1l on 2040-cars
Ruckersville, Virginia, United States
2001 Buick Century Custom 4-door V6 Sedan, Gold. 2 to 3 previous owners. 138,736k on engine and body, regular oil-changes. Radiator (2-year warranty) & Water-pump (lifetime warranty) replaced in May. Suspension end-links, Rotors, air-filter, signal lights and headlights replaced late 2013 (have all receipts.) Tires and interior are decent - moderate wear with little annoying things like a cracked clock, droopy foam pieces on the back-drivers-side door, a half-busted drivers-side door console. Recent radiator and transmission flush. Transmission is starting to die - you currently have to drive it like a manual (3rd gear doesn't stick until you get the car up to about 30-35 mph.) This car has always been plagued with electrical/computer problems (drivers-side front & back windows don't roll down/window buttons work off and on, signal lights blowing often, cabin lights flicker when the headlights turn on, etc.) so, you might get lucky and it may just be one of the trans sensors, you never know. I was baby-sitting a fluid leak in the trans too but, lucas stop-slip seems to have stopped that for the moment. Rear-view needs reglued. Really rusty sideskirts but, they're not attached to the cabin so, it'll never fail inspection because of that. Inspection's not current. This has always been a reliable car until now. The motor will go at least 2 times the current distance if you do replace the trans... Local Pick-up Only.

GM announces 6 recalls covering nearly 720k cars
Wed, 23 Jul 2014General Motors has announced yet another sprawling recall campaign, with six separate elements covering 717,950 vehicles on US roads. At this point in 2014, it's starting to seem like there are more days with a GM recall than without. Perhaps most troubling about this latest volley, though, is that every vehicle is from the past few years, indicating that GM's quality woes may not be limited to pre-bankruptcy vehicles.
The largest element of this latest campaign covers 414,333 units, and includes the 2011 to 2012 Chevrolet Camaro, 2010 to 2012 Chevy Equinox, GMC Terrain and Cadillac SRX and the 2011 to 2012 Buick Regal and LaCrosse. Only vehicles with powered, height-adjustable seats are covered. In these particular cars and crossovers, the bolt that secures the height adjuster actuator may loosen of its own accord and in some cases fall out completely. If this happens, the seats will be able to move both up and down. GM claims the vehicles are safe to drive, provided drivers don't vertically adjust their seats. This particular issue has caused one crash and three injuries.

Movie Review: Black Air: The Buick Grand National Documentary
Thu, 06 Dec 2012As Buick currently claws and scratches its way back into relevance to compete against luxury brands like Lexus and Acura, it's hard to believe that not too long ago, the brand had a car that was mentioned in the same breath as Corvette, Lamborghini and Ferrari. That car? None other than the Buick Grand National. All black with a turbocharged V6 and some of the quickest acceleration of its time, the Grand National, in today's standards, is along the lines of a 2013 Shelby GT500 with both cars essentially being a working man's supercar.
The last Grand National rolled off the assembly line in Flint, MI on December 11, 1987, and to mark the silver anniversary of that somber occasion, Black Air is a documentary of the Grand National from the perspective of the enthusiast, the collector, the media and even from those at General Motors responsible for creating such a sinister legend. Like the car itself, Andrew Filippone Jr. shoots the documentary in a raw fashion, and it definitely helps to show why a low-volume muscle car from the 1980s is still the object of obsession for many automotive enthusiasts to this day.
GM mulling Chevy Cruze hatchback for US, Buick 'Panamera' among other new models
Fri, 08 Nov 2013We've spoken at length previously about the fallacy of poor hatchback sales in the US, and with the runaway success of its Chevrolet Cruze sedan, it's somewhat unsurprising to hear that General Motors is rethinking its decision not to sell an overseas five-door variant in North America as it looks to plug a number of holes in its lineup. GM North American President Mark Reuss admitted during a media luncheon this week that not offering the model "... was a pre-bankruptcy planning mistake," says Forbes. With the next-generation model already well-along in development, it's likely that the current Cruze hatch (shown above) won't see US dealers.
Reuss admits not offering the model "was a pre-bankruptcy planning mistake"
In what must have been a far-reaching conversation, Reuss hinted at a number of new products for many GM brands, including "a much more beautiful Panamera" range-topper for Buick (which sounds a bit like the line of reasoning the TriShield brand has been pursuing with its Riviera concepts) and a "Ford Transit Connect-fighter" to supplant the recently announced badge-engineered Chevy City Express from Nissan.
