2000 Daewoo Lanos S review from North America
"It is a good car with build comparable to other imports at a fraction of the price"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Check Engine light came on due to camshaft position sensor fault (recall item).
Thermostat housing broke in two.
Air conditioning stopped working.
General comments?
My Lanos has been pretty reliable.
The seats are very comfortable and the car has been a good value for the price paid.
I would like to know if others have had air-conditioner problems and what was found to be the cause of the trouble.
