problem buick lasabre

[stephen sawyer]

I have a 89 buick lasabre and it has a few problems. I just bought this problem about 1 month ago. The trans started sliping the first day. Then I ran out gas,( I never run out gas). The brakes went to the floor and noww they are grinding. I need a direction. steve

I have worked on cars all my life. I was living in north carolina and moved to virgina where I dont have the network of friends and allot of tools. Lets start with the miles 86000 . The car was bought 2 months ago and these things started going wrong. The brakes you mentioned are going to the floor and also grinding in the front. I need some direction. The transmission shifts hard and slips! What do you think. steve (by the way I put my name under user,how do I change that)
