Positive Review

"My Dyansty is cheap to run, BRING BACK THE DYANSTY"

biggest issue ever had: Tranmission overhauled @ 95000 miles. Now 199500 and running strong and smooth. Seems to run better the more I run her... has more issues when she sits for more then a week... @ 14500 out the door price in Jan 1993, I wish I bought 3 of these babys..... love the BIG back doors easy to crawl in the back seat and move around....

Critical Review

"rather disappointing"

This car has had transmission problems all its life, starting from nearly new. Had a total transmission re-build at 70,000 miles for $2500. The ignition switch has had to be replaced about every 20,000 miles. We had frequent expensive repairs starting with the transmission rebuild, then $600 here, $800 there, etc. Every one of the power windows needed repair, weather stripping leaks, trunk leaks (without rust), and even the dealer couldn't make the glove compartment stay closed. The speedometer works if you slap the front of it hard after you get going. The windshield wiper linkages under the dashboard are apparently about to let go, even though we don't live where there's much rain. Had problems with A/C, radiator leaks, and plenty of other things. Has 105,000 miles now and is on its way to the junk yard.

The Real Dynasty
Pros

Cheap, Smooth, Comfy

Cons

The headliners on these car sag with age. Use pins

Runs smooth, shifts smooth, rides smooth. It's not a race car, but she will do 120 easily (3.3 liter). I had to replace the headlight switch, and control arm bushings. Nice paint after 20 years.

Best new car I ever bought

I purchased my 93 Dynasty brand new. It still gets 25mpg and I am not looking forward to selling it, but no more room in the garage for it. I felt completely safe in this car and never had any major mechanical issues with it. This is a good family car, four doors, comfy seats and a great ride.
