2001 Daewoo Lanos Engine cooling Problems

“There are two recall on the Daewoo Lanos's cam position sensor. I'm getting engine check lights with a fault code calling out the cam position sensor. My mechanic says I should take it into a dealer to have the recall done. My dealer says the sensor does not fall in the right date code or manufacturer of said sensor. It cost me 100 dollars to check for the recall which I find out I don't need. But my engine check light is still coming on. The dealer says my sensor doesn't work and will have to replace it any way. Which I have to pay for the part and now labor when it comes in. …”

“2001 Daewoo, Lanos; engine stalling, head lights and interior light nonfunctional, signal lights/hazard (emergency) lights nonfunctional. I received a letter from the Daewoo company apologizing for there bankruptcy in may 2002. They provide a telephone number for customers with servicing issues however these telephone numbers are busy, an answering machine picks up or they are nonfunctional. They also provide a website for service locators. I have not found anyone willing to service my car due to unavailability of parts.”
