I have a Santa Fe and two Pontiac Vibes. Vibes are Toyotas for a GM price. Then there’s the nitrous Camaro...
We had a Toyota Matrix that was a great little car except for the very poor outward visibility. My subsequent first ride in a Subaru Impreza 5-door was like riding in a greenhouse by comparison.
Until about three months ago, I had a Vibe. My two daughters still have theirs.
Got almost 300,000 miles on mine. Finally the original clutch started to slip and I got rid of it. Did absolutely nothing to the car repair wise. Until the clutch, the most expensive repairs were a wheel bearing and a serpentine belt.
I think the girls cars are around 180,000 miles each. No issues.
Stupidest thing GM ever did was to cancel that car. It was well built and the perfect size. One daughter managed to stuff three kayaks into hers.
