Advice to buyer: |
test drive a few before buying and buy one that you've already driven -don't order it from the manufacturer--you don't know what you're getting when you do that. |
Detailed review: |
Upon test driving - I was instantly in love. I decided to get one. After deciding on a color, the dealer ordered my car and as soon as I got it, I was severely disappointed. This car did not run nearly as well as the one test driven and within 2 weeks, the braking system and rotors were going bad. The the heater only worked when it wanted to. The AC kicked on by itself when I wasn't running anything but the radio and driving. Then the brakes locked completely when I put it in reverse one day. I put it in drive and pulled forward a bit, then reversed out and they were fine...next day, my brakes sounded like you were crunching soda cans. I took it to the dealer at 1300 miles - about 6 weeks after taking off the lot..it had 280 miles on it when I got it, so, I had only put a little over 1100 miles in this short time...they acted like I was looney. I talked to my salesman and he said he would talk to the service dept to get it fixed and if they can't, he will pursue the lemon law for me. If I get the Lemon Law on this piece of junk, I will not buy another. It looks great and is somewhat comfortable and is only okay on gas but is junk as far as the mechanical aspects go. I give this car a 'D' grade at best |
