Alternator replaced 2 times
Ball joints replaced around 130000 miles
List of things still to be done:

Belt Tensioner
Something to do with CV's
Radiator is rusting
Front windshield leaks to driver side floor.
Trunk Leaks and water pools in the spare tire compartment.
Another leak (location yet to be determined) causes the rear passenger floor board to fill with water.
Headliner is falling rapidly.
Something to do with the head gasket.
General comments?
I suppose that overall it has been a decent car. I don't understand why there are so many problems with the car at the moment. I don't drive far to work or go out cruising the town. I have regular maintenance done. I have never had a wreck in it, although I don't know about before I owned it.
The car is very comfortable unless you have to sit in the back seat.
Might be a good car if you can do auto work yourself.
