"A so-so car with potentially expensive repairs"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Replaced front brake calipers (both sides)

Replaced inner tie-rod on left driver's side.

Replaced MO-par battery twice within 6 months.

Replaced water pump and timing belt at 53,000 miles.

Warranty covered replacing of fuel rails.

General comments?

This car has adequate power and handling.

The ride is somewhat hard, especially noticeable on long trips.

Oh, I forgot to mention to never purchase a new MO-par battery to replace the old one, even if they give you one under the factory warranty. I have had two MO-par batteries leak acid causing damage to my cruise control vacuum hoses on my mini-van. MO-par batteries are garbage.
