What owners wrote
On 7/26/04 while travelling at approximately 35 MPH, vehicle suddenly died. The timing belt went, damaging valves and cylinder head. Fortunately, vehicle had 57,000 miles and was under warranty. However, the front control arms/bushings/ sway bar were also bad. Unfortunately, these were not covered by warranty. Items were replaced. Now it seems the oil pump is going, oil is leaking and there is low pressure along with catalytic converter going. Dealer says these items will be covered.
Recall 04v357000 concerning cam shaft position sensor. Consumer is unable to find a daewoo repair shop nor contact the number provided on the daewoo recall letter for customer service.
