"It really sucks"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Rotors, brakes, hazard, additional sensor, egr valve.

General comments?

I have had to have my brakes, rotors, pads replaced every year since I bought it in 2001. I bought as a better, safer alternative to my 85 Crown Vic (it was my first car). I have had to have the hazard thing replaced, another sensor replaced, and now my egr valve. I am a college student and my mom is a teacher, so this thing that I've been driving is costing me so much money, that I had to take out a student loan to cover it, and I have a full ride scholarship to my school. This is sad.

Yes I also had a lemon. When I bought it I had to pay 300 to replace camshaft sensor, then the gauges went out and it cost me 500 to replace, then the wheel bearing 300. And the car had bad brakes. I was sliding through stop signs. Thank god I got into an accident in a snowstorm because it was a write off. Glad to get rid of the lemon.

You put 60,000+ miles on it and you're complaining about replacing a couple of sensors and regular maintenance items? Um... herr... what? I'm assuming that you have this vehicle serviced regularly, correct?
