As soon as I purchased this car the engine light came on. I had it checked and it read that the O2 sensor was malfunctioning. I took it to a mechanic and they did a thorough scan and it turned out that the catalytic converter had to be fixed. Ever since I bought this car it has been having issues... I am thankful that I have a car... but I am so tired of this car.. can't wait to get enough money to purchase another one.
