That's on a Ford Focus, not a 124 chassis.

BTDT, too.  Only that one I paid for. Ouch.

My AC evaporator was supposedly leaking, according to the dealer, but I popped a can of the Wallyworld R134a with stop leak in it and it's been fine ever since.

It seemed to lose efficiency every 4-6 months, so I had them take a look. When they told me it was an evaporator leak ($1600) I passed on the repair.

Ours has 149,000 miles. We've had broken strut springs, a transmission problem, failed AC evaporator, collapsed motor mounts, and now this.

Both of mine are on the top side of 100,000 miles.

My 2004 wagon has a little over 150k and the son's 2005 sedan has almost 170k. Both run very well and have been very good maintenance-wise. The most expensive item to-date has been tires.

After that, the son's sedan needed a new shifter ($300) and I had to put a new rear wheel bearing on mine because I curbed the wheel ($200).

Those have been the only non-maintenance expenses we've had so far.
