1990 Dodge Daytona review from North America
"Good reliable car for the money"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Replaced the valve seal times in 7 years, and still has a tendency to leak around seal.
Replaced master brake cylinder at 96k miles, timing belt about 60-70k miles.
A/c compressor not working, but I didn't replace it as cost is about 400.
Starting to get some rust damage around lower part of doors.
Replaced muffler/piping from catalytic converter back at about 90k miles.
General comments?
I have had this car for about 7 years and racked up about 60k miles on her. I can't really complain as it is very reliable. Drives well and is comfortable. As with any used care have normal wear and tear replacements.
I still recommend this car.
