All kind of problems have hit now just at 100k miles.... oil in the coolant, headliner falling down, passenger window motor went out and rear air suspension leak. i think i fixed the oil in the coolant with the oil stop leak and block seal that you add to the coolant though. just getting frustrated with it after i replaced all the ball joints / tie rod ends and all brakes/rotors
 
It may be your Oil Filter Adapter housing gasket... kind of a PITA fix but cheap if you do it yourself. headliner is dirt cheap.... passenger window motor also dirt cheap. Rear air suspension leak may be a little pricier but new rear bags are cheap also.

If you are a DIYer you can fix it all for $250. Unfortunately with the current age of these cars... these things become the norm :(
 
i am maintaining it as a driver, still has cold a/c and gets 18 mpg daily, also had to replace the alternator, i would have re-built it but i guess people dont do that anymore
 
Still a cheaper, nicer driver than about anything else I can think of. There are nicer and there are cheaper but not a better combination!
