Problems I have not had.

[Aren Jay]

1. Anything to do with the transmission. It works great.

2. Traction control once i figure out how it was supposed to work, it works fine.

3. body panels are fine, the drivers door did stick a bit after the front panel was removed but that corrected itself.

4. Panel gap is normal and very profound but not a "problem" as such.

5. Tires are great, BFG's OEM tires are great, just don't drive in snow with them.

6. Interior is great, no tears or rips or sags or problems.

7. Paint is good, not great but good, no bubbles and only minor road rash on the front from gravel and the like.

8. Exhaust is good, sounds good, works fine.

9. Steering is great, tracks well and turns where it is suppose to and lets my DTR go were it needs to. Everything works great.

10. AC HVAC works good, slight blend door problem on one vent and occasional bad smell (might be a future problem) but so far so good.

11. Lights are great, can't seem to turn the DRL's off with the parking brake as it says in the manual, but everything works.

12. Power everything works with but a slow rear passenger power lock.

(Every car site has pages of people with problems we should add pages of no problems to these sites and show that not all Marauders have the listed problems.)

I can only say that I have similarly had "no problems" with 1, 6, 8, 9, 10, and 11. #2 does not apply to me.

Whenever you have a forum and people only post for help with problems, it's easy to think that EVERYONE has the same problems, when maybe only 10% of the cars made have them. The other 90% of people aren't going to post about their non existent problems.

They needed to be replaced too fast but my Marauder has never needed a part other than that and never needed work done to it other than oil changes and coolant change and tranny fluid change out. So just normal maintence work I still have the original brake pad's on her. Although have a new set waiting to install when needed.

Like my 1993 Grand Marquies before her that I had bought new never had a single thing brake down other than normal wear and tear replacments.

11. Lights are great, can't seem to turn the DRL's off with the parking brake as it says in the manual, but everything works.

- Paint sucks, from day 1. Orange peel on the B pillars, and inches away - primer in the rear door plates.

They lie about the DRLs. They don't turn off. Ever.

But, I wouldn't trade it for anything! Just wait till tomorrow when I finish the QA1s on the front!! :banana:

Wouldn't of been easier to list the problems you have had and not had? Saves bandwidth also :)

I guess mr. half empty missed the whole idea.

13. Never have had my Marauder over heat.

14. Never blown my engine, as in Super Charged Turbo Charged or BOOM!

[Donny Carlson]

Never had a comet fall out of the sky and crush my car.

Or re title the thread "Why I love my Marauder". :) Same difference.

I have not had the infamous wire harness chafing issue.

[Aren Jay]

15. Wire harness chafing, I have not had that either, as far as I know.

I get wire harness chafing on a hot day when I forget the Gold Bond.

Then what would be the point?

That's how I rate my sheets.

I'm 800 count, how 'bout you?



I guess I'm one of the lucky ones, too. Have had some LCM and wacky wiper issues, but lots of things are good about my MM.

17. My rear floor mats haven't worn out.

18. The auto dim on my rearview mirror works flawlessly.

19. Interior lights are 100% functional.

I could go on, but time and space does not permit....

I could go on, but time and space does not permit....Day off, plenty of time and in a mood......

Fully agree with #1 through #19. Have had no comet issues either.

I shall continue the No Problem list:
20. Trunk opens fully and without difficulty
21. Center console armrest is comfortable to lean on while driving. It holds my dog's leash, CDs, phone charger, pad/pencil and sunglasses with ease
22. Cup holder flawlessly holds my Starbucks Grande Estima cupa joe during my morning commute.

Doh Casey! LOL! There goes my cuppa joe all over the keyboard!! :D You wait....now that I've mastered Mini Coopers, I'm moving up to PT Cruisers.:eek:

Oh come Rex....You can't quit now!
We have unlimited space for more posts and new threads.

:blah:.......:rolleyes:


Oh...and I've not had any problem with my wheels falling off, nor the car spontaneously exploding into a fireball.

[CBT]

I haven't gotten a call lately telling me I need to pick up my car because it's picking fights with other cars in the parking lot so that a good thing.
