What Maintenance issues have you had with your xfire?
I have owned my lovely xfire for a little less than a year now and have had the following maintenance issues. I wanted to find out what others have had with their cars and what we may be able to anticipate in the future...
Now don’t get me wrong. I love my ride and enjoy even some of its little shortcomings but thought that I would share my list and hear others. Fortunately for me she is still under warranty and all repairs below were covered!
Here is the list:
- Steering wheel replaced (leather peeling)
- Top windshield strip replaced (silver portion)
- Door and edge plates where the retractable roof weather strip runs water down the door edge. There are two pieces per side one on the car and the other at the top inside portion of the door. They began to rust
- Valve cover gaskets replaced
- Steering stabilizer replaced (that thing was over $600 and covered under warranty)
BTW - my car only has 19k now and before changing the steering stabilizer the car would get pulled all over the road! They said that mine was leaking. Kind of surprised that these parts are only $40 on Amazon (dealer $615), and it looks as if they go pretty frequently.
Thanks
