  • 2nd Worst Car Ive Ever Owned - 2002 Daewoo Lanos
    By -

    I bought a 2002 Daewoo Lanos with only 51,000 miles on it about 11 months ago. I bought this car when gas prices were at $4+ per gallon, and I got stuck needing a new car at the wrong time. Ive always driven small 4 cylinder cars and prices on them soared last summer right when I needed to replace mine. This Lanos was the only thing I could find in my price range so I fell for it. The only car Ive ever owned that was actually crappier than this car was an 86 Ford Escort. There really is no comparison between this car and the other 4 cylinders Ive owned. Ive owned Volkswagons, Toyotas, Nissans, Fords, etc. and this Daewoo is by far the cheapest piece of junk Ive owned since the Escort.

  • Horrible Car - 1999 Daewoo Lanos
    By -

    I would not recommend buying this car at all. It lasted 1 year. Its had a ton of maintenance problems. Many of the problems seem to be electrical. So far weve had to fix the transmission, replace the battery, and the car dies as soon as I put gas in it. The parts for the car are also cheap so everything will be falling apart within the first 3-5 months as I noticed. The windows get stuck when you try to roll them up. The sun roof doesnt work. Its very hard to keep clean. I thought this would be a first good car. I would definitely not recommend buying this or any Korean car.

  • Lemon and Piece of Junk - 2000 Daewoo Lanos
    By -

    This is the worst car in the world. I got this car after it had only 9K miles. Drove it for a while and all sorts of problems. Where do I start? First of all, its not a very economical car and uses a lot of gas for its size. No power and its very embarrassing to drive uphill especially if you have a couple of passengers. It acts like it has a motorcycle engine. Dashboard constantly shows Check Engine light which is very annoying. Battery dies constantly. I think there is major electrical issues with this car. Avoid this car at all cost people!

  • Dont purchase a Daewoo! - 1999 Daewoo Nubira
    By -

    I bought a showroom car w/about 7,500 miles. Day one, headlights would not work, the entire wiring had to be replaced. A few months later, battery died, headlights stopped working, inside lights stopped working, all wiring problems. Fuel pump went after only about 23,000 miles, most recently, the timing belt broke and damaged the entire casing. Now I have to wait 3 to 4 weeks for parts and repairs. Daewoo refuses to pay towing or car rental. They are hiding behind the Chapter 11 bankruptcy they filed. DONT EVER BUY A DAEWOO!!!!
