Faults:
I bought the car 2 weeks ago with 70,500 miles on it. The car had a little trouble steering to the right. I put aside some money to fix it. Let me take a deep breath and begin. This car SUCKS. Chevrolet SUCKS. Detroit SUCKS.
First off it leaks oil from every crevice of its worthless body. Rack and pinion steering cost me 300 bucks plus another hundred to fix the pressure hose it busted.
Driving home, this car gets awful mileage and DOES NOT have 215 HP. It has more like 115 HP because it is slower than my friends Hyundai.
Brakes are HORRIBLE.
I parked at 7 11 to get a Coca Cola, when I got out the car wouldn't drive, number 6 cylinder was misfiring, had to get it towed. 120 bucks.
Radiator was gunked up with old dex cool. Had it flushed, on the way home I parked and got out for a second and my car was blowing coolant all over the place. Busted water pump. 250 bucks.
I have owned this car for 2 weeks! 400 miles! And I have put 1000 dollars worth of repairs into it. And now, I'm going to get rid of it because this might be one of the worst cars ever made. Never ever buy a Chevy Monte Carlo ever if you're a smart person.

It's 11 years old and used.
Common sense would have said be weary, despite the miles. Did you get a car fax report on it?
