Anyone else notice that these have little annoyances with breakage? I have discovered multiple little things. A pillar covers coming loose from the plastic, loose headliner, broken visors, etc, etc.
None of it affects the driveability but they are bothersome. Anyone else notice this stuff or is it just mine?

The hinge in the console compartment in my 2001. I fixed it.

Yep, my first Aurora had saggy pillars. My current one started off with nice tight ones, but they too have sagged over time. My arm rest on the door is worn in and split. The car is 100% mechanically sound and as comfortable and reliable as ever, but the little things do annoy me. Can't really do much about the arm rest until I find a suitable donor at the yard, which is much harder now than it used to be. I suppose I can refinish the pillars myself, but I don't know if I have the patience.

Geez, 20-year-old cars just ain't what they used to be...
Kidding aside, I've never seen anything else from GM hold up at this age like these seem to do. For the most part.

Yeah... cheap plastic and materials of the time, unfortunately.

Agreed, little age-related flaws. Always returns to "how much and how long to fix"  |
