Our 5 speed manual Vibe has been absolutely trouble free, looks and drives like new. At 103,000 miles it still has the original brakes! Only replaced tires and wiper blades. The oil level tops the dipstick between changes at 3-5K, never added any. The original Continental Contac tires wore evenly to the wear bars at 30K but replacements wear fine. We use the 110 volt dash outlet all the time on trips to charge cell phones. Gas mileage good for such utility. Great highway car. Can be hard to hold back to 70 mph, seems to want to go 75-80. A great only car: economical and versatile. We still get compliments on its styling. The ride is taut, can be harsh on rough roads unloaded.

Bought my 04 Vibe in July 04 when the new 05's were coming out & got a good deal. Right away had a bad feeling when the car wouldn't start the day I had to pick it up.The dealer had left the dome light on overnight and drained the battery but after a jump start and a night on the battery charger no problems occurred. Gets great gas mileage:avg 33mpg's. The center console under the shifter constantly pops open, just recently had this addressed by the service dept.and now seems to be fine. Been to FL,IA, & CA from TX and the cars performed admirably.Great car for small family (1 or 2 small kids).Great interior capacity for trips.

I purchased the car second hand, and I've only had it for a few months so far. I've only had to replace a sensor for the heater (inexpensive). It drives well, great gas mileage and it is fun to drive. It seems like a very reliable car.
