MODERATORS
Also they were HORRIFICALLY unreliable, to the point where my mechanic's actual quote was "Folks, I'm not in the habit of talking myself out of a $10,000 paycheck, but this car is not worth it." 30 minutes before we walked in his door it was working fine, by the time he went to drive it to the bay it wouldn't start, and never did again.
It wasn't even paid off yet.
To say nothing of the fact that one had to drop the engine to get to the alternator, the electrical blew itself out twice in the 4 years we owned it, very few of the features worked with any competence, and we just got our 3rd or 4th safety recall for it (or whatever is left of the parts at the scrapyard).
Consumer Reports rated its reliability as a six - not out of ten, but out of ONE HUNDRED.
Absolute lemons.
