i had a buick regal turbo a long time ago. worst car i have EVER owned. worst dealer experience ever in my life. had it in for a/c service twice, i finally took it to an independent, and he drained more than a quart of oil out of the system, and it was fine after that. i had also special ordered it with gauges. there were none. then, one day, i was doing something, i forget, but i had to remove the panel around the speedometer. lo and behold, underneath, THE GAUGES. the dumbasses had put the wrong panel on. so i got the correct panel, which i had to pay for, of course. another time, after dealer service, my custom installed stereo would not work on the left side. upon close examination, a screw had been installed right on the speaker wire, grounding it. it was working perfectly when i drove it to the dealer, and it was not when i got it back. the last time, and i forget why it was in for warranty service, the dealer calls and tells me it needs a part that is not covered under warranty, and it will cost me like 800 bucks. so i go down there, and they show me, the steering column is all apart, and hanging down, parts all over the floor. i tell them to put it all back together, and i will take it. "oh, no, we cant do that". then i will take it as it is. they tell me to go ahead, and they are all laughing at me. i take the keys, get in, start it up, and back it out, steering column loose, and the wheel bouncing all over the place. they are all yelling at me, and i drive off. i go a couple of blocks and park it in a safe place, call my wife to come and get me. i go home, get my tools, come back, reassemble the steering, and drive it home. it never had any steering problems before, during, or after. buncha lying tools. i have NEVER bought another american car since, and i never will. nor will my son. or my sisters. and anyone else i can convince. and now my tax money bails them out. so, up yours, buick.

 

I thought the thread was about a 2014 Buick?
WTF! Rant about an older model with no year, must be generic!

 

Worst car i ever had is my current one, 2006 Mazda 6. Everything went wrong with it: automatic tranny blown, fuel tank, exhaust manifold, had to re-design the crossover pipe, cut the egr tube as it was sticking out too far causing 1 bank to be leaner than other, poor ign coils, bad brake booster, no external tranny cooler, lousy radio.
There's my worst car: Mazda 6.
Finally with all the mods i have done, it finally runs better, and handles better than new!

 

my worst car was a 1966 vw beetle. i kept telling my brothers and my girlfriend that it broke down every 5 seconds. i did not want to let them use it. the truth? the most reliable, easy to maintain car i ever had. after that one, i bought a 1966 van, a 1970 bug, and a 1971 bug. and right now im looking for one so i can get rid of my 4runner. i just love vw beetles, up to 1972. more than mazda.

 

second worse car we ever had was a 626. also made in the us. what a pile. we also had other mazdas, a 323gt and 323gtx, both made in japan, and both superior in quality compared to the 626. our millenias are also made in japan, and fit and finish far beyond any us made car we have ever owned. we also have a subaru outback, built in the us, and it is very well made, so i know quality can be had in the us. gm quality sucks, as does their dealer network

 

subarus are sweet! you have to love those boxer engines. what the hell, its a vw beetle engine, just water cooled.
