New front rotors installed at 5200 miles.
New power steering pump required at 6000 miles. Also at this time the radiator was tightened and the windshield molding put back in place.
The front seat is narrow and has a straight bar across the top, right at shoulder blade level. Wide front pillars interfer with vision, they create large blind spots.
How well did you take care of your car in this short time that you have had it? The better you maintain your car the better it runs the better for everything.
I have heard it lots of time and now I see it, if you want to abuse your car or not keep it well-maintained you should buy a Honda or a Toyota those last forever. Or you can go with the GM products such as Oldsmobile or Buick, I have had both an Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera and a Buick Regal. I am very busy and so it helps because they don't need constant maintenance.
Ah, brake rotors normally last more than 5200 miles even under HEAVY abuse. And the power steering pump and windshield have nothing to do with maintenance.
This isn't my car, I would choose to "take life by the horns". However I just wanted to point out that there was probably nothing this person could have done to prevent these problems. They are obviously factory defects. And unfortunately these vehicles, and manufacture, are known for quality problems.
