Reliable car, but starting to require more and more repairs as it approaches the 5 yr old mark. Lots of squeaking and random noises beginning to happen. So far, repair costs have run about $500, but more are needed. A new set of tires was also needed last year, so the originals did not last as long as one would have hoped. Will need to replace the car within the next 12-24 months, before repair costs become more than the car is worth.
