  A disgrace to the word "Automobile". - 2000 Daewoo Nubira
  By toiletbeard - September 1 - 7:35 pm

  Stay far, far away from this vehicle. My Daewoo was dirt cheap ($2000 with decent mileage) and now I know why. In 2 years, Ive had to replace the starter, the alternator, front & rear brake pads, the timing belt, mechanisms for the tires, 2 batteries/loads of bulbs due to the faulty wiring, various hoses, bearings and fuses, oil leaks patched every year, the sunroof broke, the CD player shorted out, all 4 door handles popped off, buttons stopped working on the dash, and more. As we speak, the high beams are stuck "on" because of the bad wiring, so I have to disconnect the battery or pull the fuse when I stop. Good luck getting replacement parts, which are expensive and hard to find.

  Nightmare - 2001 Daewoo Nubira
  By hellofacar - November 12 - 2:00 am

  This car, Ive made the mistake to buy it used, from a friend, with a 106,000 miles. After 6 months of use, it had become a nightmare, soon after the timing belt broke on it, no matter how good Ive tried to maintain it. Worse, the whole car got the lower control replaced, but problem still not solved. I hated the car and heaven only blesses those who still own one in their garage. Im also happy they dont make them anymore, and would not recommend anyone. I should have given it for charity, but preferred to scrap it instead. Dont buy this car please .

  Falling Apart - 2001 Daewoo Leganza
  By rienna - November 9 - 7:38 pm

  I still enjoy driving this car--peppy, if a little slow to accelerate--but in the past year its been in for major repairs (price wise) roughly every 6 weeks, and parts have to be ordered from GM and shipped from SOUTH KOREA. Problems started at roughly 80k, am at 93k now and they just keep getting bigger and harder to get parts for.

  Hate it! - 2001 Daewoo Nubira
  By wt8396 - June 17 - 7:10 am

  I bought this about 2 years ago as my first car. At first I was in love, but now I have to resist the urge to take a bat to it! I had to change the front tires twice and replace the control arms in the first year (which ended up costing half of what I paid for the darn thing). Now I need to replace belts and tie rods, and my windows and rear defrost only work when I have the drivers side door wide open. Oh, and the air conditioning went out a couple months after I bought it. Im crossing my fingers that someone will rear end me and total this piece of junk!

  Not that great of a car. - 2001 Daewoo Lanos
  By Vash - June 14 - 6:53 pm

  The car breaks down when ever it wants, the mpg is not that great, i can go from corbin to london and have a full tank and it is on half. The handling is fine... but over all this car stinks, you cant find parts for it most of the time, if you need a part for it... good luck... i could not find a damn thing on it. So please get a car that you can fix if you break, cause this car is not going to do you any good if something breaks, the transmission codes on it cant be read on most gauges.... Good luck to all that has one.

  only buy if you need a shootin car - 2001 Daewoo Leganza
  By sasparila - April 24 - 3:16 am

  bought it at 54000 mi and 1 mo. later sensor went. SO i give a tune up but this car just had it out for me ...I always kept up on oil changes , radiator flush transmission fluid change etc. but it didnt matter all in all about 3 sensors, a radiator, head gasket ($1100 just for that), not to mention the handles on the inside where a fake plastic chrome so they pealed n cut any one who touched them , the dash came apart from a few hot days melted the cheap glue.Every part was really expensive..Only ONE dealership would service it in the whole state of Wisconsin due to it being discontinued. oh yeah had to redo the whole break system except for the lines. trani went at 91000mi

  What a joke! - 2001 Daewoo Nubira
  By Nicole D. - February 21 - 12:02 am

  I have NO IDEA why I bought this car. I went from a 1988 Honda Accord which NEVER gave me trouble to this piece of junk which I have done nothing but sink money into. I now have to replace the tires which will hopefully stop the shaking ... but who knows! I found out recently that this was a rental car from Florida -- are you kidding? I hate it. I want it gone. Period.

  Whatever you do, DONT buy a Daewoo! - 2001 Daewoo Nubira
  By weezerific - February 12 - 12:00 am

  This car is an absolute nightmare! It is good looking and was very cheap. Other than that, there is absolutely NO redeeming qualities about this car. A month after I bought it, it had to be fixed 7 times. The "check engine" light goes on every three months, every time for a different reason. Ive had the lower control arms, bushings, catalytic converter, tires, brakes, and brake hoses replaced in the 3 1/2 years Ive had this car. Resale value is pathetic. Parts are expensive, hard to come by, and nothing aftermarket works on the car. Getting it fixed is like pulling teeth, and Daewoos warranty people are constantly trying to rip you off.

  So Much For That... - 2000 Daewoo Nubira
  By Shelberz - October 16 - 6:06 am

  $3,000.00 USD worth of repairs within 3 months. Im freaking out in anticipation of what’s next. I feel ashamed for purchasing this vehicle.

  Worst Purchase ever made in my Life - 1999 Daewoo Lanos
  By Crystal - September 29 - 2:34 am

  I am so sick of problems with this car I cant even begin to tell my story but let just say out of the six years I have owned this junk I have only been able to drive this car for 3 years because I cant locate simple parts. BEWARE! I havent put any mileage on this car in 3 years so I dont even know my annual mileage.
