Had car for 30 miles and it had to be serviced 7 times. Computer failed twice, wouldn't start, heater went out, oil leak, wouldn't start again, and something else. (I can't remember because I have had to take it in so many times)

Bought the vehicle in late January and havent had any problems since. The only drawback is that the gas mileage isnt as great as I would have hoped. But other than that, the car gets me where I want to go and is very relaxing. I'm hoping the car will get me through driving back and forth with college.

I bought this car used. I guess that was my first mistake. I have had numerous problems. Fuel leaks, brakes, water outlet valve keeps blowing apart, over-heating, now it has been in the shop for a month, replaced fuel pump and filter ($350) and it still won't start. Now while at the shop something with the security system is locked up. The security light is on and the car will do nothing. Anyone wanna buy it? Real cheap!! Pay it off and it's yours!!

I have never had any serious mechanical problems with this vehicle. I bought it pre-owned certified with 56,000. It is now up to 98,000 miles and I have only spent 700 in total for repairs, spanning five years. The only problems I had was the ignition at 98,000 miles and my power windows broke. The key to this vehicle being very reliable is preventive maintenance. If you know nothing about cars and run it into the ground like a Honda you will have problems; however, if you do the normal maintenance such as tune ups/oil changes every 5k miles, fluid flushes, and belt change you should have no problems. If you buy this vehicle and no nothing about how well it was taken care of beware.
