Canada Matrix rating???

Hi,

Just a question for the fun of it, I don't know for you guys..but I kind of very satisfy with my Matrix 05 up till now..I'm up to 130,000km...and beside the usal maintenance and the little problem I've mentionned here in this forum....just had to change a front wheel bearing at 118.000km...So I would personnaly rate it a 9/10...So how about you guys????....because reading a couple of you're topics....fiouuuuu...do I have to consider myself lucky or what????...One thing in my favor, is that I've own 5 Dodge Caravan before swicthing into a Matrix....So I went directly from hell to heaven in my automobile lifestyle....haahahhaaha..So waiting for you're comments....are you satisfy with you're Matrix up'till now?????

9/10

I bought my 2008 Vibe new in December, 2007 and it is quickly approaching 30K miles (48,000 km) and I'm 9 outta 10 happy with it. I've had two warranty repairs (locked up A/C compressor and an oil leak). I like the fuel mileage and I'd give it a 10/10 if it rode a little smoother and quieter and had more power. Of course, it is what it is and I'm comparing it to my wife's Camry, which is unfair.

The Matrix/Vibe is a great little car and I think you'll find most owners are very pleased with theirs.

Matrix Rating

I bought a 2004 XR a couple of years ago and am quite happy with it and so is my wife.

When I got it, the dealer put new Michelin Harmony tires on and replaced the drivers power window, replaced the rotors and pads.

Aside from oil/filter changes, I've haven't any repairs to do.

That said, I must agree with the rough ride, but I downsized to get good fuel mileage (which I AM getting) and you only get what you pay for.

10/10 here I love my girl
though it was a big adjustment going from my 98 Camaro to my 04 Trix but all things given, she's classic Toyota I've put 10k on her since i got her last year and look forward to putting many more on her in the years to come

Anita: if you've had such a bad experience with your matrix, you might want to share with us Are you having mechanical problems or unhappy with the overall quality of the vehicle Personally a 2/10 is a pertty poor rating to give without any comment

Own an 05 with 204,000, nickle & dime problems, uses no oil between changes, clock stopped working and rust on rear door handles ( from shim behind handles ). Original rear brakes, drive HWYS. I've had my share of domestics, and nothing compares to the dependability of this Matrix. Has never let me down. Original battery and I live in Upstate N.Y.
You'll never look back.
