"Loved it until this month"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Replaced the Mass Air flow sensor 3 times at 135,000. Something keeps killing it

New Paint Job at 76,000.

Blower (for A/C) stopped working at 135,000.

General comments?

This car has run perfectly for the past five years, I am just now having problems.

It is extremely comfortable. I was 21 when I bought it and I am 25 now. All of my friends love it.

I have driven it all across the U.S. and have driven it in Mexico twice. Once all the way down the Baja peninsula to cabo san lucas and back.

Tons of room for taller individuals.

Very smooth ride.

The car starts then dies, then it throws a check engine light for MAF and some security sensor. It will run fine for a week then bad for 1 week. I am trying to solve this problem so I can drive this car until I am 30.

Anyone with the same problems

Have you tried the fuel pump. Your troubles sound like the ones I had with my car. Keep the tank more than half full once repaired. It keeps the pump cooler. Cheers from Canada. The heater in this car works great, even when it is more than -30 below like it is this morning.

Mine was doing the same thing. The diagnostic indicated the MAS sensor, but the problem was the computer to the sensors (?). Replaced the computer and it's running beautifully again!!
