1989 Dodge Daytona review from North America
"Nice looking pile of crap!!!!!!!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
What didn't go wrong?????
The computer took a crap at 92,000 miles.
Every sensor was replaced.
The exhaust was replaced twice.
The transmission was replaced 2 times, same with the engine.
The heat mysteriously stopped working.
The car jolted everytime you tried to put it into second gear.
The clutch pedal was stuck to the floor.
After a full brake job... The rotors, callipers & pads, etc. The brakes went bad after only two thousand miles.
Upon selling the car the clutch and transmission went out on the car followed up by the engine one more time. This all totalling well over four times the car's worth.
General comments?
Don't buy one unless you have a big wallet.
