2001 Daewoo Nubira CDX review from North America

Front Lower Control Arms replaced at 23,000 miles.

Front brakes worn out and were replaced at 23,000 miles. Front rotors had to be machined. Car has only highway miles.

You have to floor the brakes in order to stop the car even though the brakes are in good condition.

OEM Kumho tires wore out completely at 23,000 miles.

My car is unable to hold 4 wheel alignment despite keeping tires at manufacturers recommended 30 psi and rotating tires per factory recommended maintenance schedule.

Check Engine light on problems required several visits to the dealer to resolve.

The front seats make a creaking sound while driving which is very annoying.

The engine is very noisy and the gas mileage is very poor.

The paint on the car is fading in several areas which gives the car a blotchy appearance in the sunlight. The paint has also started peeling near the underside of the car.

The metal on the car is so thin that it dents very easily. This is a big safety concern.

There are very few dealers sevicing Daewoo's and they are very far from each other and there is no guarantee that they will fix your car. It is very frustrating and time consuming.

The car is very expensive to maintain and has to be taken to the dealer where it remains until they are able to get parts for it. I have spent a lot of money on rental cars and taxis.

I have tried to trade in the car, but the dealers either don't want it or they want to give me nothing for it.

I am praying that the car holds up until I pay off the auto loan.

I will never buy a Daewoo again.
