Ion 2.2L

  • Manual transmission
  • 30,000 miles

This has been the worst car i have ever owned. In 2008, just after the warranty had expired, the tumblers in the ignition switch fell apart so the car would not turn off: $150.00. Then the power steering pump went out: $300.00. Then the power windows, power rear view mirrors, power door locks, stopped working and it's not fixed yet. Then the heater coil got a leak: $320.00. Then they put 16" rims on my car and i have to put new tires on my car every fall: $500.00. The mechanic tells me that it is in alignment but when i turn sharp the tires will squill.

One minute driver's window worked, went to close it, NOTHING but vibration. Needed a new regulator. Cost $300.00 plus . Not impressed, 6000 km out of warranty.

this car has been a problem from the start we have had to have the power steering and the ignition fixed. (the key would not come out. or let us turn the car off) the cruse control only works when it wants to and know the power door locks and the power windows wont work. this car is only 3 years old and I have spent moor on rapers than I have on my other 2 cars a 1990 Nissan and a 2000 Dodge combined. ARRRRR!!!!!

Ion LX

  • Automatic transmission
  • 52,000 miles

I have had three sets of issues with the rear electric windows not rolling down. The first two, luckily, happened the car was still under warranty. This third episode is really rediculous. The motor on the rear driver side window has stopped working again.
