9-5 SE
r******!!! 3 years of onwership and spent 16 days at the maindealer.
I thought I got a good deal at the time, but I know I could have done better, but I was willing to pay more for a maindealer car. I thought I was buying a bit of class!! But now I know, What a Sucker!!!!
Front passenger anti-rattle devise broke 5 times,
Fronseat upholstery clip broke 5 times (still not fixed),
Climate control hot air to the rear (took 4 times to fix),
Tracking - despite being all within spec. it won't drive straight (change lane 50-100m, heading to ditch),
Rattle under dashboard (3 times to fix faulty wire loom),
Onboad computer LCD screen failed,
Turbo hose broke loose,
Fuel line or exhaust line broke leaking fumes to cabin,
Wood Veneer started to turn white,
Passenger headlamp wiper broke,
All bushings and some bearings replaced as mechanics could not locate cause of rattle,
Wiper linkage bar worn rattles and sqeaks,
Front disc and pads replaced now there is a squeak and ticking noise (maindealer says this is OK),
Climate control now makes a 'f***ing' noise when recirculating.
Very unreliable car, silly things keep breaking, you are just praying that nothing else is going to break.
