Engine was misfiring and needed much more than plugs. |
| 110000 mi | Cleared CEL, but it came back. No obvious symptoms, so we're not messing with it. |
| 119000 mi US $500 |
Failed thermostat regularly registered the car as overheating. (I know there was something else repaired at the same time, but I don't have the documentation handy.) |
| 121900 mi | Van has begun stalling when it has low fuel, under maybe a quarter tank or so. No repairs are planned; we'll just get gas more often. |
| 124000 mi | Car failed emissions test; went in for catalytic converter/exhaust work. Car has begun overheating and dying when driven more than 15-20 minutes. No immediate plans to repair; will likely be donated. (It would have required a tow, but it was just left in a parking lot and come back for once it had cooled off.) |
| 124000 mi US $300 |
A shop fixed the previous overheating problem by disabling the rear heating system, which we took as an acceptable solution. (A repair that kept it working would have been much more expensive.) |
