Numerous issues 1. heater core went out around 60,000 miles. 2. dexcool "gelled" and caused the above. 3. stereo has malfunctioned since 36,000 miles. 4. tie rod end wore out around 30,000 miles-took to dealership a couple of times and "they couldn't determine cause" of "noise and rattling". I took it to a tire company/service center and they fixed the problem. 5. numerous interior floodings-water comes in at the firewall and floods the interior carpet-has mold, and deterioration from it. 6. headlamps are yellow and nontransparent-the lights are not working properly because it can't shine through. 7. headlamp assemblies are holding water. 8. fog lamps went out right after purchasing the car and one of them burned the plastic assembly that holds it causing it to not work at all, disfigured now. 9. rear spoiler is not attached correctly and seems to be the cause of water entering the trunk lid.

Problem with bouncing front end originally. Had wheels balanced, didn't fix problem. Then hard to turn as if power steering wasn't working and also a clunking noise when turning the steering wheel. First they replaced a tie rod assembly, but this did not correct the hard steering problem. Had to leave the vehicle at the dealer for more than a week for them to get parts to fix the rack and pinion steering. Also had a problem with water inside my heater/ac causing an accumulation of water and malfunctioning of the fan and causing water on the passenger side floor. Have also had to have a side mirror motor replaced. I fortunately have an extended warranty. I purchased my vehicle new in Feb 2000. I only has 25,000 miles on it and there sure has been a lot of things happening to it. I have also had water leaking into the trunk which was a bad seal around the rim of the trunk and spoiler and a leak near my sunroof which was unable to be diagnosed.
