Blew a cam tower bearing at 9k miles.
Fog light burned out at 10k miles.
Air conditioner blew hot/cold in summer.
4 speakers replaced.
Dashboard rattled.
What a pity. I dumped this car with only 15k miles. Being a 6S with the Grand Sport Appearance package, it was no doubt strikingly beautiful and had all the bells and whistles (it better have at $28k).
Unfortunately, with half the warranty gone and all of the repairs done to it, out it went for another vehicle (you know the one with 10/100k). I just couldn't see getting buried in this car once the warranty expired.
What is sadder yet is that a car that originally listed for 28k was after only 20 months fetching between 13-14k for trade in - it didn't matter how few miles or how spotless it was. Maybe these car dealerships know something we consumers just don't - these cars aren't a good risk once they leave the new car lot.
I have had the same problem with my Mazda, but I have an additional complaint. My car has pulled to the left since I took it out of the show room. I have had in the shop for this problem 6 times and all they do is perform an alignment. It is ruining my tires and they will not replace them. Also, my car alarm would go off randomly for the first month of my ownership. I want my money back!!
