Thinking of buying the 1992 Buick Roadmaster?
CarmaCars rents cars and does not sell the 1992 Buick Roadmaster; this page helps you judge it before you buy one elsewhere. Here is what to know about the 1992 Buick Roadmaster before buying one.
Recalls and complaints
There are 3 NHTSA recall campaigns on file; a dealer can check by the VIN whether each was done. Owners filed 87 complaints with NHTSA, most often about service brakes, seat belts and air bags; have those parts checked. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace.
The figures, translated
The 5.0L 8-cylinder does the work, through a 4-speed automatic. It runs on regular gas. Rear-wheel drive gives balanced handling; in winter, the tires make the biggest difference.
Combined fuel use is 13.1 L/100 km: about 39 litres for 300 km. The fuel for 100 km comes to about $20.31 at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$3,700 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.
Space, size and seats
As a wagon, it has the length of a car with a bigger load space at the back. For luggage, 1,557 litres means bulky luggage, a stroller or sports gear.
Is it right for your trip?
It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month. It suits a weekend away when the train does not reach where you are going.
A longer test drive
A week with the Roadmaster answers more than any brochure. Rent the Roadmaster first, and buy only if it fits your life. A test week in the Roadmaster tells you more than any review.
Running costs
A 1,000 km month costs roughly $203.10 at our price setting. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $20.31 in fuel.
Which one to look for
Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary.

A rental request is free; the offer shows the full price.
