Alternator went at 85,000km. $300 to replace, installed it myself. Other than that it has been a great car. The rear brakes squeak a lot. This is a common problem for this car. The front brakes also wear very quickly.
Great car for the money. Cost only $23,000 brand new with leather, power windows locks mirrors and sunroof with a Bose CD player. Dealer added 15" ROH aluminum rims for nothing. Comparable to an Accord or Camry, but in my opinion better. Can't beat the quality.
If the rear brakes are sqeaking then simply remove the Brake Drums and clean the inside linings out. Of course this may also point to Driver Abuse. I myself have never encountered this problem in forty nine years of driving.
