We bought this car used, but we have it serviced every 5-6,000 kms. Nothing small goes in this vehicle. We basically drive within a 55 km radius. The tranny would not shift, the body rotted out despite rust proofing, now the rad has oil in it, head gasket, not even 160,000 kms,,,please where are the old fashion value,

I have had several problems with this car from the time that I bought it, it has been in the garage for more repairs that it has been on the road, from not staying started during the warm days to stalling in the middle of the road when weather is hot. Multiple problems with this car and yet no recall on some of these parts has been done. No safety defect mentioned. *Ak
