The driver's side mechanical seatbelt got stuck on it's track.
The check engine light was always on even when nothing was wrong with the engine.
The rear defrost button never stayed pushed down so I would have to drive and keep my finger on the button for it to work.
The car is sitting in my driveway with rod knock. It will not start. It started stalling at stops and then finally died.
This car is fun to drive, but not at all speedy. It feels like driving a go-cart and I never felt totally safe in it.
I liked the hatchback because it was very convenient for groceries or moving anything large.
It's a pretty good car for city traffic and for a first car.
The car is great on gas!
Oops, sounds like mine. Thought rod knock, was stuck lifter. Then found valve seat let loose. Bad deal, but cheap to fix with salvage yard head. Cost me for head gasket kit and gasket goo. cost me way under 100 in parts. I found 1.9 in an older Escort that quit running. Runs great.
Have had 3 cars from all three major car makers with the check light on. Knew a girl in late 80s that had a new Beretta with the check light stuck on.
