I HAVE 2000 DAEWOO NUBIRIA WITH 65K MILES, I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE FOR THE CAMSHAFT SENSOR. IT UPSET ME TO LEARN THAT MY CAR WAS NOT PART OF THE RECALL. I HAVE HAD MY DAEWOO SINCE AUG 2000. I HAVE HAD SEVERAL PROBLEMS GO ON WITH MY CAR. IN 2000, DOOR HANDLES PEELING OFF (REPLACED) IN 2002, NEW DOOR HANDLES PEELING OFF (NEVER RECEIVED ANOTHER NEW PAIR BECAUSE OF BACK ORDER) IN 2002, REPLACED BACK ROTORS AND PADS (BACK BRAKES LOCKED UP WHILE DRIVING, I PAID FOR) IN 2004, REPLACED STOP LAMP (COULD NOT MOVE CAR INTO DRIVING GEAR, I PAID FOR) IN 2004, ENGINE CHECK LIGHT COMES ON AND OFF (THOUGHT THIS WOULD BE TAKEN CARE AS PART OF THE RECALL; NEED TO BE REPLACED) IN 2004, IN LINE FUSE (NEEDS TO BE REPLACED) IN 2004, LOWER CONTROL ARMS (NEEDS TO BE REPLACED) IN 2004, VC GASKET (NEEDS TO BE REPLACED) I CANNOT AFFORD TO PUT ANY MORE MONEY INTO A CAR THAT IS WORTHLESS AND CANNOT AFFORD TO BUY A NEW CAR.... I DON'T KNOW WHAT DO! *NM

I PURCHASED A NEW DAEWOO NUBIRA IN JUNE 2000. IN MAY 2003 THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND REMAINED ON DESPITE NUMEROUS DIAGNOTIC AND REPAIR ATTEMPTS. THE LIGHT REMAINED ON FOR OVER A YEAR. IN JANUARY OF 2004 I TOOK MY CAR FOR THE NOW REQUIRED EMISSIONS TEST, IT FAILED DUE TO THE CAMSHAFT SENSOR. I PURCHASED THE REQUIRED PART, A CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSOR, ON 1/15/04 AND PAID A MECHANIC TO PERFORM THE REPAIRS. THE LIGHT ILLUMINATED AGAIN WITHIN 3 DAYS OF REPAIR. ON SEPTEMBER 12TH, I RECEIVED A NOTIFICATION OF DEFECT FROM DAEWOO MOTORAMERICA, ADRESSING THE SAID CAMSHAFT SENSOR. ONE MONTH LATER THE CAR BEGAN TO HESITATE WHILE I WAS DRIVING, AND WOULD NOT ACCELERATE SMOOTHLY, FINALLY IT IN MAY, WHILE I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY, ALL THE LIGHTS ON THE INSTUMENT PANEL CAME ON, THE CAR BEGAN TO SHAKE AND THEN JUST SHUT DOWN. IN REGARDS TO THE SENSOR, I BELIEVE THAT DAEWOO MOTORS WAS NEGLIGENT IN THEIR RESPONSIBILITY TO NOTIFY CONSUMERS IN A TIMELY MANNER. AFTER VISITING SEVERAL CONSUMER AFFAIRS SITES, IT IS APPARENT THAT THIS DEFECT MANIFESTED ITSELF AS EARLY AS 2/2002 FOR THE MAJORITY OF CAR OWNERS, YET DAEWOO HAS TAKEN 2 1/2 YEARS TO NOTIFY OWNERS. *AK
