Comments
"Overall, a good car. Handling
and braking are excellent. Acceleration - well, the AT is reluctant
to downshift. Can be frustrating to drive in the 25 - 40 mph
range and try to accelerate. Also at dead stop. Good on 75 mph
interstate, however.
Sedan Problem Description = Repair record includes valve cover
gasket replacement and leak in coolant hose. Also, gear selector
jammed. Paint integrity has been disappointing. I consider this
about par."
