Cute car, but this car has alot of issues
The overall looks of this car is very cute and sporty, roomy and cute for a mom/dad with kids. That is why I got the car. However, blind spots and more blind spots, you have to bob your head several times to see . The mirror and the door make a huge blind spot on both the right and left. You will miss pedestrians, cars at stop signs, motorcycles and bikes, so if you buy this car, until you learn it, you will get honked at and hopefully not crash. The seats stain so fast and with just water. What kind of material stains with water that isn't silk or satin? Apparently, this material does. The car dents and scratches very easy. I got my car before they changed the gas millage rating. I drive about 150 miles a day mostly highway and I get about 30 miles to the gallon. My car seems to have light issues, break lights go out frequently in my car I have changed them about every 3 months. There are spares in my glove box because I am always having to replace lights. The car engine seems to do well. The transmission sensor on my car has gone out twice now $995 fix (warranty expired). I have also had my barrings replaced twice (both under warranty) the drive train replaced (under warranty), the steering wheel electronics i.e. cruise control, volume, phone etc. system broke ($600 fix warranty expired). Car runs winney and rough shifts it has always done this and one of the complaints on the car. The other issues, this car is horrible I mean horrible in wet and snowy conditions. I have bought the best freaking tires money can buy for winter and my car tire just spins. The car is too light and it just don't go. You will get stuck on hwys going up hills so put spare clothes in your trunk and make sure your phone is charged. There are other issues with this car things just are always needing fixed on it. Last repair, my oil turned to sludge somehow, I get regular oil changes and the oil light wasn't on, but when they were checking my oil they said the dip stick was dry. So $300 repair for diagnosis and sludge clean out and oil change. Of course I currently have 200745 miles on my car, so it does seem to last a little while. I got 250,000 on my chevy malibu before my trans went out and 260000 on my chevy caviler before I traded it for the Malibu. So I guess we will see if this car can make it to 250,000.
