Consumer Description

THIS 1996 OLDSMOBILE AURORA HAS AN EXPENSIVE REPAIR TO FIX THE STARTER AND REPLACE THE BATTERY. THE BATTERY IS IN A CONTROL CORROSIVE ENVIRONMENT WHICH IS UNDER THE SEAT AND ACCESS IS BY REMOVING THE ENTIRE CHAIR. THE STARTER RENDERS EVERTHING USELESS AND IS VERY EXPENSIVE TO ORDER. I AM JUST GLAD THAT THE STARTER AND BATTERY DID NOT BLOW UP WHILE IN TRANSIT OR LIVES AROUND IT. IT COULD HAVE BLOWN UP AND INJURES COULD HAVE BEEN SUSTAINED.
