My feelings about this vehicle are in part tainted by the horrendous service experience I had with it (see post about those a-holes at Cueter Dodge). But all the same, I have reason to proclaim this model dead to me. I realize that things go wrong with cars, and you need to spend money to maintain them in proper working order. However, $2000 over about a 6 month period on a car that was only about 3 years old at the time?? That seems excessive to me. My other car, the total powerhouse of Ford engineering that is the 1998 Escort wagon, has maybe cost me $2000 in repairs during its entire long, reliable life thus far.
In addition to my bad experiences with this vehicle, I have reports from a friend who also owned one. She experienced strange electrical problems as well, on the order of "the power windows won't work when it rains, but only while I'm driving on the highway."
These cars are either possessed or pieces of shit. I'm going with #2.
