    My nearest dealership is over an hour away from me. That's the reason I haven't bothered with the recalls. Mine also needs the catalytic converter recall performed as well. :(

    1) they had to reprogram the onboard computer once (free)

    2) Long trips in the desert i think a rock hit my condenser / evaporator on my AC and caused a leak due to build design in the front alot of debris can fly thru the front. (warranty took care of this)

    NOTE: just regular maintenance , but with this car 1 maintenance is a must and thats the BELTS, be sure to change belts at around 60-65K miles and then just do your normal routine maintenance and car will last.

    Both my rear door window regulators went bad and cause the window to drop. These plastic tabs go bad. I just pulled the door panels off and used vice grips to hold the window up on the track.

    Oh and all 4 of my door panels had one push tab that would always get loose. The top outer one to be exact. Sometimes it would cause the panel to get stuck when trying to open the door. New hardware wouldn't work. I got creative and fixed it another way.
