2000 Daewoo Leganza SX review from North America
"An expensive-looking, solid car for peanuts"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
As soon as we bought it, one of the lines went bad on the air conditioning. This caused water to condensate within the air conditioner which caused a musty smell in the car. Fixed under warranty.
At 52,000 miles, alternator went out. The dealership was barely able to get a new one and it cost $300 for the parts and labor, since the warranty expired at 36,000 miles. Dealership did not let me use a loaner car, which was very inconvenient and disappointing since it is our only car.
General comments?
Drives like a BMW.
The leather used on the seats is very durable.
A joy to drive, lots of power for a 4 cylinder.
A comfortable family car.
