the only real common issue is that the heater core "o" rings leak on many diamantes.. that will lead to coolant entering the car.
they can be replaced, but the labor is intensive (there is an updated part for the "o"ring).

otherwise, the cars are reliable, comfortable, and powerful.

thanks for the comments. i can fix little bit stuff myself as long as its not big. i really dont know about cars but i can replace the parts easily. on my galant i replaced the radiator, intake manifold, engine mounts. it was alot of work but it came out perfectly. so only it can have coolant problem. i hope it does not happen. thanks alot anyway.
