1991 Plymouth Acclaim Standard review from North America
"It is a good little car and runs very well"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
In 1998, we had to replace a coil inside the engine that was not making contact so the car would not start.
Early in 2004, the belts started to squeal, but were replaced by mechanic.
Early in 2004, "Check Engine" light came on and stayed on. Will be taking to mechanic in a couple of weeks.
General comments?
When we bought this car in 1996, it had approximately 91,000 miles on it.
We have had it for a little over 8 years and except for a few minor problems, we have had very little problems with it and it now has around 187,000 miles on it.
In 2002, we had it painted since the light blue paint was starting to flake.
