1995 Buick Century problems
Buick Century is the model name that was used by Buick for a line of upscale full-size cars from 1936 to 1942 and 1954 to 1958, as well as from 1973 to 2005 for mid-size cars.
The first Buick Century debuted as the Series 60 then renamed in 1936 as a shorter and lighter model featuring the same engine as the bigger Roadmaster and Limited series giving it more performance while using the shorter wheelbase body of the Buick Special. During the 1930s and 1940s it was Buick's companion to the top level Roadmaster and was offered as a 2-door and 4-door sedan and convertible. The Century name was used on six generations of cars of varying sizes as well as performance and trim levels. In 1969, Buick developed a concept car known as the Century Cruiser. In the 1970s, the Century Regal became a separate model and market positioning between the two products changed from year to year depending on sales. The Century was updated to front wheel drive in 1982 and was Buick's 2-door coupe, 4-door sedan and station wagon, with regular updates and feature upgrades as customer preferences changed over time.
Series 60 (1930–1935)
Originally, the Series 60 had the 331.4 cu in (5.4 L) OHV Buick Straight-6 engine from the Series 70, developing 99 bhp (74 kW) at 2,800 rpm. It had, at the beginning of the generation, a full-length running board denoting the top model for Buick at the time, shared with the short wheelbase, entry level Series 40. In 1930, GM built 38,180 cars. The bodystyles available were torpedo, sedan, coupe, and roadster convertible, using GM's "B-body" platform. Starting with this generation, all GM cars shared a corporate appearance as a result of the "Art and Colour Section" headed by Harley J. Earl and modest yearly changes were introduced to freshen the appearance.
In 1931, the running board was reduced and the OHV 220.7 cu in (3.6 L) Buick Straight-8 engine was introduced that developed 90 bhp (67 kW). Aesthetically, the Series 60 remained almost unchanged, and the same fact occurred also in the following year. In 1931 and 1932, a total of 55,135 were produced.
In 1933, the length of the body increased and the radiator was now concealed behind a façade with a grille. The engine power increased to 97 hp (72 kW), and 1933 was the first year all GM vehicles were installed with optional vent windows which were initially called “No Draft Individually Controlled Ventilation” later renamed "Ventiplanes". In 1934, the appearance was changed to a more rounded appearance, with a new OHV 278 cu in (4.6 L) eight-cylinder engine and 100 hp. In 1935, the model remained almost unchanged while the body style selections were similar to larger Buicks but more affordably priced. Six choices were available to include both 2- and 4-door convertibles using the term "phaeton" for the 4-door convertible with a listed price of US$1,675 ($37,224 in 2023 dollars ). Total production from 1933 to 1935 was 31,385. In 1936, the model changed its name to "Century".

Common 1995 Buick Century problems
Based on the complaints from owners of the 1995 Buick Century, several common problems have been identified:
- Overheating Issues: Owners have reported overheating problems with the 1995 Buick Century. This issue can be caused by various factors such as a malfunctioning engine coolant temperature switch, faulty engine coolant temperature sensor, or issues with the cooling fan circuit. Overheating can lead to serious engine damage if not addressed promptly.
- Rough Idle: Another common complaint is rough idling, where the engine's idle becomes increasingly rough. This issue can be indicative of problems with the alternator, particularly if there are issues with the power outputs or rectifier within the alternator. Rough idling can also be exacerbated by battery-related issues.
- Coolant Leaks and Intake Manifold Gasket Failure: Leaking coolant and intake manifold gasket failure are significant concerns reported by owners. These issues can lead to coolant leaks, overheating, and potential engine damage if not resolved. The Dexcool coolant used in some Buick models, including the Century, has been associated with acid buildup and rust in the cooling system.
- Power Window Assembly Problems: Owners have experienced issues with the power window assemblies, particularly with cheap plastic clips breaking inside the assemblies. This can cause the window to drop into the door, requiring costly repairs or replacements of the entire pulley assembly.
- Transmission Slipping: Transmission slipping is another common problem reported by owners of the 1995 Buick Century. This issue can lead to difficulties in shifting gears smoothly, affecting the overall performance and drivability of the vehicle.
These common problems highlight the importance of regular maintenance and prompt attention to any issues that arise with the 1995 Buick Century. Addressing these problems early can help prevent further damage and ensure the longevity of the vehicle.

In my opinion, this car was an excellent value for my dollar. It was the best buy for only $4000, and it was the newest with only 97000 miles. While some may consider this a lot, I am hopeful that it will last as long as my grandparent's car did, which was 92 years old and had 180000 miles. I love the acceleration and comfortable feel of it, and I especially enjoy getting on freeways. All in all, it's a great car!
-
This car is in great condition with original mileage and has been well-maintained. Everything has been taken care of at the proper time and it has not been neglected.

Hello! I hope you're doing well. I just wanted to share with you that I recently purchased a car from my grandfather's estate for my wife. It's a lovely car, with leather seats and all the bells and whistles. I'm really happy with it! It's a great daily driver, with excellent mileage and a smooth ride. My grandfather was an elderly driver, so he didn't drive it very fast, but he took great care of it. In fact, he only put under 5K miles on it each year. There is a bit of rust starting in the wheel wells, but that's to be expected since the car sat for long periods of time. We also had to replace the exhaust for the same reason. However, I'm confident that the engine will last for a long time. Thanks for listening!

Hi there! I hope you're doing well. I just wanted to share my experience with this car. I bought it as a used car back in August of 1997 with 42000 miles on it, and I'm pretty sure they were mostly highway miles. Since then, I've put another 43000 miles on it, and I have to say, it's been a really reliable car. I've had to replace the battery, brakes, muffler, and exhaust, but other than that, it's been smooth sailing. It always starts up quickly, and I've made sure to keep it in the garage to keep it in good condition. Thanks for listening!
-
I hope you're enjoying your 1994 Century! It's always exciting to get a new car.

This vehicle required frequent repairs during our ownership, costing us $2,400. Despite having only 76,577 miles when purchased, we had to replace the starter, alternator, radiator, and more. These issues were addressed promptly and effectively, ensuring the vehicle was always in top condition.
Emery McClure 2024-08-08
I completely agree that the early to mid 90's versions of the Buick Century and Oldsmobile Ciera are some of the best domestic cars ever produced. These cars were not only reliable and safe, but they also had a timeless design that evolved with improvements to the engine/drivetrain, interior and safety features. They were internationally mid-sized and 4-star safety rated, making them a practical and economical choice for most drivers. While some auto writers criticized GM for keeping the same basic design for so many years, I believe that this is a similar approach to Saab, Volvo and other European car makers. The Century is a great example of understated transportation that is both powerful and reliable, especially with the 3100 V-6 engine.
Durward Ritchie 2024-07-17
2nd owner, at 96K I replaced the muffler. At 102K, I had a vacuum leak and issues with the lug bolts. However, overall, the car has been very reliable, and the seats are still comfortable. It would make a great commuter or teen car! I average 22-23 MPG with combined driving.
Terrill Rowe 2024-06-13
The car has been fantastic! Although we did have a transmission issue after 140k miles, it was quickly resolved and we've had a trouble-free ownership experience since then.
Darius Lindgren 2024-04-29
Hi there! Thank you for considering this wagon. It has been well-maintained and has only 104,000 miles on it. Recently, we invested in some important repairs, including a new alternator and fuel pump, which cost $300 and $500 respectively. The wagon runs smoothly and quietly, and the 3.1 V6 engine is healthy. While it may not be the most powerful, it still gets the job done. Plus, it has some great features like power windows, locks, tilt steering, and a fold-up seat in the rear that can seat up to 5 adults and 3 kids. With a fuel economy of 18/26 mpg, it's a great alternative to a van or SUV. Let us know if you have any questions!
