"Nice ride, it's a shame it wasn't built better"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

The heat stopped working. Replaced the thermostat, water pump, and had the coolant flushed. EGR valve went out soon after. Then the engine began idling at around 2500 RPM, took it to the dealer and it was a bad idle air solenoid, bad DPFE sensor, and the throttle body needed adjusted (estimated at $500) replaced the idle air sensor and everything seems fine now. Breaks are beginning to warp, broken sway bar and bushings in the back end. rear view mirror fell off the windshield.

General comments?

The transmission seems to not allow the torque converter to unlock at low speeds causing lack of power.

While running the air the car runs unusually hot and hesitates from a dead stop.

Uses about a half gallon of coolant every 3 months.
