1995 Peugeot 306 SR review from El Salvador
"Could not be worse"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Oil pan warped and therefore leaked oil (defect from factory).
Plastic of oil dipstick melted.
Steering wheel plastic disintegrated (replaced it with a nice Momo).
Rubber Bushings of suspension arms disintegrated.
Door gaskets did not hold water out.
Drivers seat cushion broke.
Reflective surface of headlights bubbled.
Accelerator often got stuck under Peugeot's original mats.
Engine missed when there was less than 1/4 tank of gas left.
IR door remote stopped working.
Ate outside of front tires quickly.
A/C evaporator rusted and became perforated after only 2 years of use.
General comments?
Worst car I have ever owned, second worst was a Peugeot 605.
