NO EVENTS LEADING TO FAILURE. NOTICED ODD STEERING AROUND MARCH 2004. CAR PULLS TO LEFT ON ACCELERATION, ONCE CAR SHIFTS, PULLS HARD TO RIGHT. BROUGHT TO LOCAL MECHANIC IN AUGUST 2004 AFTER ALMOST HITTING A SEMI. THEY SAID CONTROL ARMS/BUSHINGS NEED TO BE REPLACED. THEY FOUND THE PROBLEM AFTER DRIVING THE CAR LESS THAN A MILE. THEY TRIED TO ORDER PARTS, FOUND THEY WERE DEALER ONLY PARTS, PREPAY ONLY, NO RETURNS. LOCAL MECHANIC WOULD NOT SERVICE THE CAR. TOOK IT TO DEALER I BOUGHT IT FROM. CHARGED ME $50 FOR DIAGNOSITC, EVEN THOUGH I TOLD THEM WHAT WAS WRONG WITH IT. ORDERED PARTS ON 8/12/04. DEALER SAID IT WAS SAFE FOR ME TO DRIVE, TIRE WILL NOT FALL OFF OR ANYTHING. RECOMMENDED NO ONE ELSE TO DRIVE IT THOUGH. CAR IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE. UNPREDICTABLE. THE PROBLEM IS GETTING WORSE. I NOTICED MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS SAME THING. I'M NOT SURE ON THE STATUS OF THE PARTS. I JUST WANT IT FIXED & MY CAR BACK TO NORMAL.*AK

THERE AREN'T ANY EVENTS THAT LED UP TO THE FAILURE. I TOOK MY VEHICLE IN FOR A ROUTINE CHECK AND WAS INFORMED OF THE PROBLEM THEN. THE FRONT CONTROL ARMS ON MY VEHICLE ARE WORN. I HAVE GONE THROUGH 3 SETS OF TIRES WHILE TRYING TO LOCATE THE PART TO FIT MY VEHICLE. MY CAR SWERVES AFTER REACHING A SPEED OF 30 MPH. I AM UNABLE TO DRIVE MY CAR ON WET ROADS BECAUSE I AM NOT ABLE TO CONTROL THE EXTREME SLIDING THAT OCCURS. I HAVE CONTACTED OVER 50 DEALERSHIPS IN MY AREA AND OUTSIDE OF MY AREA AND HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO LOCATE THIS PARTICULAR PART. PARTS FOR MY CAR ARE VERY HARD TO FIND AND VERY COSTLY. *AK

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.*AK

2000 DAEWOO NUBIRA FRONT SUSPENSION. FAILURE OF FRONT CONTROL ARM BUSHING CAUSES SEVERE OVERSTEERING UNDERSTEERING AND TORQUE STEERING. THIS CONDITION IS MORE PRONOUNCED DURING WINTER DRIVING AND AND CONDITIONS SUCH AS HIGHWAY ON RAMPS WHERE TO CAR WILL RAPIDLY CHANGE DIRECTION. THIS IS A VERY SEVERE SAFTEY PROBLEM THE LOWER CONTROL ARM BUSHING ALLOWS THE CONTROL ARM TO SHIFT WHEN ACCELERATION AR DECELERATING CAUSING THE TORQUE STEER. FROM REVIEW OF THE COMPLAINTS THIS HAS BEEN A REACCURING PROBLEM WITHOUT INJURIES AND SHOULD BE THE MANUFACTURERS RESPONSABILITY TO CORRECT. *AK

I HAVE A 2000 DAEWOO NUBIRA WITH 71,000 MILES ON IT. THE TIMING BELT BROKE, AND NOW I ALSO NEED A VALVE JOB. THE OWNER MANUAL STATES TO CHANGE THIS AT 72,000 MILES AND WHEN I CONTACTED THE MANUFACTURE THEY STATED THAT THE WARRANTY IS FOR 5 YEARS OR 60,000 MILES. I FEEL THAT THE MANUFACTURE HAS COMPLICITY IN MAKING GOOD ON THE COST OF REPAIR, AS THERE MANUAL THEN MUST BE MISLEADING OR SHOULD HAVE STATED TO BE REPLACED AT 60,000 MILES OR LESS. *LA

TOOK VEHICLE TO A DAEWOO DEALERSHIP. 3 HOURS LATER SERVICE MANAGER WAS TOLD BY DAEWOO THAT THEY WERE INSTRUCTED TO INSPECT THE VEHICLE, BUT DID NOT PERFORM ANYTHING RELATING TO THE RECALL.

KNOWN NUBIRA 2000 PROBLEM. BOTH LOWER CONTROL ARMS ARE DEFECTIVE AND BUSHINGS SHOT (DESIGN FLAW). SYMPTOMS OF PROBLEM INCLUDE SQUEAK AND SLUDGY SHIFTINESS WHEN TURNING (NOT GOOD FOR WNTR DRIVING) ALONG WITH 2 RUINED TIRES. 19K ON CAR. WARRANTY EXPIRED LAST MONTH AND THERE'S NO RECOURSE EVEN THOUGH PROBLEM EXISTED BEFORE THAT. TIRES WEAR VERY FAST AND I WAS DRIVING AN UNSAFE CAR.*AK

THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS ON. CAMSHAFT SENSOR, 04V357000. *JB

WHILE TRAVELING ON THE HIGHWAY AND WITHOUT PRIOR WARNING VEHICLE LEAKED OIL FROM UNDERNEATH. *AK

CAR HAS 19000 MILES AND BUSHINGS HAVE GONE BAD CAUSING THE FRONT ALIGNMENT TO BE OFF AND HAVE CAUSED THE FRONT TIRES TO WEAR OUT AND HAVE BEEN ADVISED THAT EVEN IF THE BUSHINGS ARE REPLACED, THIS PROBLEM WILL HAPPEN AGAIN DUE TO POOR DESIGN AND STRUCTURE. *NLM

THE FOLLOWING COMPLAINT PERTAINS TO SPEED CONTROL AND STEERING CONTROL SYSTEMS OF 2000 DAEWOO NUBIRA. SPEED CONTROL: (RECURRING, UNPREDICTABLE). *AK PROBLEM OCCURRED WHILE ATTEMPTING TO PARK. PULLED INTO A PARKING SPACE WITH FOOT ON BRAKE PEDAL, ENGINE SUDDENLY RACED (AS IF ID FLOORED THE ACCELERATOR) AND CAR SURGED FORWARD (FOOT STILL PRESSING BRAKE). HAD TO TURN IGNITION OFF TO STOP CAR. HAPPENED AGAIN (SAME DAY) AT A TRAFFIC SIGNAL. WOULD HAVE REAR-ENDED VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME IF I HAD NOT ALLOWED FOR DISTANCE OF TWO CAR LENGTHS BETWEEN IT/MYSELF. MY 62-YEAR-OLD MOTHER OWNS THIS VEHICLE. SAYS SHE USES EMERGENCY HAND BRAKE WHEN THIS HAPPENS, AND INITIALLY COMPLAINED OF SAME PROBLEM OVER A YEAR AGO. DEALER (HILLSIDE AUTO-MALL, HILLSIDE, NJ) SAID NO PROBLEM WAS FOUND! ASKED IF PROBLEM COULD POSSIBLY BE DUE TO A MANUFACTURING DEFECT? DEALER STATED, THATS AN ISSUE YOU WILL HAVE TO TAKE UP WITH THE MANUFACTURER. WE JUST SELL THE CARS! STEERING CONTROL: (RECURRING, UNPREDICTABLE) WHILE DRIVING AND/OR ACCELERATING VEHICLE WILL UNEXPECTEDLY PULL (SHARPLY) TO THE RIGHT AND BECOME DIFFICULT TO CONTROL. BEHAVIOR EXTREMELY PRONOUNCED IN WET WEATHER AND WHEN ACCELERATING! NO NOTICEABLE PROBLEM FOUND, BUT SIMILAR COMPLAINTS ARE ON FILE! NOTIFICATION OF RECALL: DID NOT RECEIVE VEHICLE RECALL, NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER 02V257000, ADDRESSING VEHICLE SAFETY STANDARD NO. 106, BRAKE HOSES. WILL SEEK ASSISTANCE OF THE DEALERSHIP TO ADDRESS THIS ISSUE. FOR THE RECORD: VEHICLE IS ONLY THREE YEARS OLD, AND (CURRENTLY) HAS REGISTERED LESS THAN 20,000 MILES. OF THE MANY COMPLAINTS ON RECORD AT THIS SITE, THOSE CONCERNING SPEED CONTROL AND STEERING CONTROL ARE THE MOST TROUBLING. ARE THEY COINCIDENTAL!!! MY MOTHER WILL TRY (AGAIN) TO GET THESE ISSUES RESOLVED AT THE DEALERSHIP WHERE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED. GUT FEELING, HOWEVER, IS THAT CONCERNS WILL NOT BE ADDRESSED UNTIL SOMEONE IS SERIOUSLY INJURED, OR WORSE. I PRAY IT DOES NOT COME TO THAT!

WHEN THE CONSUMER PUT HER FOOT ON THE BRAKE, TO PUT THE GEAR INTO DRIVE, THE VEHICLE ALL OF A SUDDEN LUNGED FORWARD, THE CONSUMER STATED THERE WERE NO BRAKES. *AK *PH *JB

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
