Brake failure, brakes cleaned and adjusted six times.
Transmission replaced at 50,000 km. Transmission still not shifting properly.
Car is in for repairs more than it is out and dealership is not initiating permanent fixes.
Headlights only have a life of 6 months. Dealer says to only use them when it is dark.
Trunk strut broke even though trunk is rarely used.
Fuel sending unit failed.
Wipers rust. Wiper arms have been replaced four times.
Rear door has never closed properly.
Platinum spark plugs fouled at 83,000 and had to be replaced at my expense.
Wiring had to be replaced at the same time.
This car has been the worst nightmare of my life and has been very expensive to own.
If you own one be sure to do the maintenance before the scheduled times as the parts are designed to fail completely at specified times. For example, the timing belt should be replaced at 95,000 so replace it at 90,000 to be safe.
Two different dealerships have done transmission work on the car and must have inadvertently pulled the oil plug instead of the transmission plug. On two occasions I arrived home and found that there was no oil in my engine.
The magentis is a nice looking car, but that's all that's good. so much goes wrong with that car and the customer service is no good.
Yesterday I hit a bump and my rear view mirror fell off. the service guy said " that happens to cars" and just about all of my interrior lights have burnt out and I have had the car for 11 months.
