We bought this car when it had 50,000 miles on it.Now at 105,000. Still going good!Regular work done on it like brakes,rotors,tires,oil changes,etc. That is all normal wear and tear. On second muffler but first one was a cheaper one. Biggest expense was the security in the ignition and key.Kept shutting the car down, making it think it was being stolen.Brought it to dealer and they bypassed the security chip-$380. Most expensive repair done to it. Great in the snow too! Northeast can be brutal! Stereo has shorted out but that's an easy fix too! No major issues. Would recommend a buick. Trading her in next week, need an upgraded vehicle with newer specs!

I have used this car for years and never had a serious breakdown and i would only take it in about every 10 months to 1 year for a repair. I gave it an oil change about every 4-5K miles on high mileage full synthetic and it ran like it was new. Got 21mpg at 251k miles. If you can get one for less than 150k miles do it. Yes its a lot of miles but my car would easily reach 300k or even 400k miles

I have had this car for 11 years. I love it and it is very reliable. It's still in great shape and I take good care of her; she's never let me down. I highly recommend this vehicle. The back seating area can be a little tight if the front seats are pushed back. The trunk is enormous. I just wish it had 8 way power seats rather than 6 way and that the a/c vents had the 6 way vents (up, down, left to right, on-off wheel) like my Oldsmobile had.

Strong, smoooth, fuel efficient engine. Comfortable interior, needs more lumbar. Lots of toys. Some quibbles: climate control less than intuitive, Smartstalk wiper and cruise combined, no mist function, small glovebox, backseat for kids only, glass in rear window optically "off", embedded antenna weak.

This is the first car I've owned that wasn't a Toyota Camry. This car is BY FAR a better vehicle than the 1999 Camry I got rid of to buy this. I will NEVER go back to a Camry. This car is very comfortable, has power, mileage with this 6 cylinder is about the same as the Camry's 4 cylinder. You can't go wrong - Consumer Reports named this the most reliable car!!!!!
