I'm probably in the vast minority here, but oh well. Life would be boring without a dissenting view once in a while.
I've got a ridiculous laundry list of crap wrong with my car. And I plan on fixing as little as possible before I trade it in in the spring.
1. Sunroof motor is shot.
2. Sunroof headliner has relieved itself from duty.
3. Headlights are hazed and the tabs are broken.
4. front grill is smashed to smithereans (my fault)
5. ball joints are toast
6. front rotors are warped
7. power steering went on strike 3 days ago
8. any time the RPM's rise above 5 or 6k, the battery light comes on and the AC all of a sudden will blow harder until the revs drop
9. clutch is in need of replacement
10. most of the gears require coaxing to come out to play
11. 3 of the 4 speakers work
12. trunk struts are shot
13. 2 jack point skirt insert things are missing
14. air bag light blinks to the tune tune of hey jude
15. cd player is picky (with store bought discs)
16. the car apparently doesn't like gasoline, because filling it can be an exercise in patience
17. the interior lights work at random
18. EVERYTHING RATTLES
19. alignment is out
20. it chews through tires (see #19)
21. AC works on high only. sometimes.
22. paint is faded on the bumpers (it's been garaged 50% of its life)
23. fuel economy has dropped from 26 combined to 22ish combined (driving routes and habits have not changed)
24. winshield appears to have served time in Iraq.
25. wipers engage randomly - apparently excited by horn blasts.
26. right front wheel bearing is in an on again, off again relationship
27. lower rear grill ate a couple of its tabs
There's more, but I'm running late for something.
Who can beat that?
