I am the second owner of this car. Right now it has 134100 miles. It is
still being driven. Purchased with 22000 miles and averaged 32mpg
highway. It has plenty of power, 252hp and 249 ft lbs torque, and fun to
drive.
It runs good and has been very reliable. Oil changes were always
completed at around 5000 miles with synthetic. The water pump and
alternator are the only major parts replaced. Spark plugs were replaced
at 83000 miles. Trans fluid at 65000.
Problems:
Tires will need to be replaced soon. 2 are at 4/32 and 2 at 5/32
There is an intermittent growl and tight steering when turn right and a
squeal/growl when the car starts. Believed to be power steering pump.
The passenger air bag light comes on when someone sits in the passenger
seat.
Intermittent oil light. I have a new oil pressure switch, just have not
installed.
Small dent on rear bumper ,with paint cracks, and on front right fender. Front bumper has road rash.
