2001 Daewoo Nubira problems
Daewoo Nubira is a compact car which was produced by the South Korean automaker Daewoo from 1997 to 2002 as a 4-door sedan, 5-door hatchback and a 5-door station wagon.
Development
The Daewoo Nubira (J100 platform) was released in 1997 reflecting Daewoo's new found design and manufacturing process. Production took under 30 months by ex-Porsche and BMW engineering chief Dr. Ulrich Bez (later of Aston Martin), with Daewoo's growing in-house R&D network in Korea, Worthing and Munich collaborating with the world's best engineering consultancies. Styling was done by I.DE.A Institute in Italy, and other companies involved in the development programme included Ricardo and GM Holden. Built in Kunsan, South Korea in a factory equipped with sophisticated laser-guided robots, it was developed as a replacement. People weren't entirely sure what was the replacement, but Daewoo said that not only did it replace the lower and medium specification of the Espero, but also those at the upper end line-up of the Nexia.
Overview
The name Nubira (누비라) is the command form of the Korean verb Nubida (누비다), meaning to crisscross. Thus the name was chosen to convey the aspiration that this car would be seen crisscrossing every corner of the globe.
The Nubira II (J150) (facelift) was released for the model year 2000. Over 90 improvements were made by Daewoo's Worthing Technical Centre in the United Kingdom, including an increase in passenger space and a decrease in noise, harshness and vibration (by adding a fourth engine mount and retuning the intake resonators for example). Offset crash performance was further improved in the second generation, as demonstrated by Australian ANCAP tests, though it fell well short of exemplary performance. The exterior was reworked, including the revamped front, a more angular rear and door mirrors creating a more dynamic upright and swept look of the era, a design later seen reflected by the Lexus ES350 and 2004 Mitsubishi Diamante.
International market Nubiras had a choice of a Daewoo "E-Tec" 1.3,"E-Tec" 1.6, or Holden 1.8 or 2.0-litre inline-four gasoline engines: no diesel version was ever offered, although the Worthing Technical Centre installed Renault's F8 1.9-litre engine in a small number of test vehicles, under a development programme known as J151.
The Nubira was also briefly produced from CKD kits on Taganrog, Russia TagAZ factory; it was marketed as the Doninvest Orion by the Russian automaker Doninvest. Until 2008, Daewoo Nubira was produced in Romania in a former Daewoo factory which had the licence from GM Daewoo. The Daewoo Nubira was still produced in Egypt in 2008, in a former Daewoo factory which has the licence from GM Daewoo.
The Nubira was replaced in 2004 with the J200 Daewoo Lacetti, under GMDAT management with a new Pininfarina-designed body offered as a sedan, station wagon, and Italdesign hatchback. It was sold in some European markets as the Chevrolet Nubira and in the United States as the Suzuki Forenza and Reno.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM PROBLEM
- Date Of Incident: 2010-11-03
- VIN: 2G1WA5EKXA1
- Components: ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
- Summary: TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2001 DAEWOO NUBIRA WAGON. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A LOCAL REPAIR SHOP WHERE THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 19,941.
ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING PROBLEM
- Date Of Incident: 2007-01-22
- VIN: KLAJC52Z31K
- Components: ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING
- Summary: THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND WHEN DIAGNOSED IT WAS RELATED TO A DEFECT IN THE CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSOR. I CAME TO KNOW ABOUT A RECALL REGARDING MY VEHICLE MODEL ON THE CAMSHAFT SENSOR AND TOOK IT TO A DEALERSHIP FOR REPAIR. THE DEALERSHIP SAID THE CAR WAS NOT IN THE DATABASE AND REFUSED TO DO THE REPAIR. IN THE RECALL LETTER IT SAYS THAT WITH THIS CAMSHAFT DEFECT THERE IS A RISK OF ENGINE CATCHING FIRE. *TR
SUSPENSION PROBLEM
- Date Of Incident: 2008-02-04
- VIN: KLAJB52Z91K
- Components: SUSPENSION
- Summary: THE DAEWOO NUBIRA 2001 SHOULD BE RECALLED TO REPLACE LOWER CONTROL ARMS WHICH ARE ATTACHED TO THE SUSPENSION. I FEEL THE CONTROL ARMS' INADEQUACIES ARE CATASTROPHES WAITING TO HAPPEN. THE CONTROL ARMS ARE FAULTY AND COULD CAUSE STEERING FAILURE. THIS IS A PART THAT IS REPLACED ON THIS CAR MODEL TOO OFTEN. WHAT HAPPENS IF SOMEONE DOES NOT HAVE $700 TO PAY FOR REPAIR? I ASK THIS BECAUSE WHEN I DRIVE THE DAEWOO IT IS INCREASING DIFFICULT TO HOLD IT ON THE ROAD DUE TO THE FRONT END RACK AND PINION STEERING JERKING LEFT AND RIGHT. I LIMIT MY DRIVING TO THE SUPERMARKET AND SMALL ERRANDS BECAUSE OF THIS PROBLEM, AND BECAUSE OF THIS DEFECT I DRIVE SLOWLY AND ON SMALL STREETS. GETTING ON THE HIGHWAY IS COMPLETELY OUT OF THE QUESTION. I WAS TOLD BY THE TECHNICIAN AT MOTOR CITY, ODESSA, TEXAS, 432-550-8721, THAT THE BALL JOINT MAY FALL FROM THE FRAME CAUSING LOSS OF CONTROL. I NEED REPLACEMENT OF THESE CRUCIAL PARTS. I CAN LIVE WITH PEELING PAINT, BARELY FUNCTIONING ELECTRIC WINDOWS, AND A NON FUNCTIONING AIR CONDITIONER, BUT I CANNOT LIVE WITH A STEERING PROBLEM THAT IS VEERING OUT OF CONTROL. I KNOW THAT DAEWOO IS NO LONGER IN BUSINESS - BUT GMC IS. I ALSO KNOW THAT THE RATIO OF DAEWOOS TO OTHER AUTOMOBILES ON THE ROAD IS LOW; HOWEVER, ANY FUNCTION OR PART ON A PRODUCT THAT MAY CAUSE EVEN ONE ACCIDENT DUE TO MECHANICAL FAILURE SHOULD BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY BY YOUR DEPARTMENT. AN ACCIDENT CAUSED BY A MALFUNCTIONING STEERING MECHANISM ON ANY AUTOMOBILE MAY LEAD TO SOMEONE'S DEATH. *TR

Hi there! I hope you're doing well. I just wanted to share my experience with my car. I bought it second hand back in 2013, and it had already been driven almost 100,000 KM. But let me tell you, it's been a great ride! The car is so much fun to drive, and it has all the power you need without eating up too much fuel. I haven't had any major problems with it, except for the rear right window not opening from the driver's door controls (although it still opens from the rear button itself). Sometimes, you might hear a buzzing sound coming from the plastic around the door handle due to vibrations, but that's just a minor issue. The engine is a bit louder than average, but it's not a problem at all. Overall, the car is still in great condition, and it's definitely a great value for money. Let me know if you have any questions!

Hi there! I hope you're doing well. I just wanted to share my experience with my 2001 Daewoo. I bought it brand new off the lot and I still have it! I was initially drawn to it because of the low price, and I've been pleasantly surprised with how well it's held up over the years. Of course, there have been a few recalls and minor issues, like a sensor on my automatic transmission that needed fixing, but the mechanics at my dealership have been fantastic at keeping me informed and helping me take care of any problems that arise. I will say that the front end can be a bit weak when it comes to potholes (and let's face it, U.S. highways can be pretty rough!), but replacing the control arms has solved that issue for me. Overall, I've found that regular maintenance, as outlined in the manual, has kept the engine running perfectly. All in all, it's been a real bargain for me and I'm so glad I made the purchase!

I was searching for a used car at the dealership for around $10,000. I test drove a 1997 Civic and a 1999 Toyota Corolla, but unfortunately, I was disappointed with both. However, the salesperson convinced me to test drive a brand new Nubira that was priced at $10,500 after a rebate. To my surprise, it drove much nicer than the two used cars, and it even came with a new-car warranty. I was sold! Since then, I have been extremely pleased with my purchase, despite the fact that Daewoo has since stopped selling cars here and filed for bankruptcy. The car has been completely reliable, has plenty of power, and gets great fuel mileage. Like any cheaper car, if you maintain it well, it will last.
-
I'm so glad to hear that you've had a great experience with your car! It's wonderful to hear that it's been reliable and efficient for your daily commute. It's a shame that the company went out of business, especially since they were on their way to producing such a great little car. Also, it's great to know that your husband has more head room in this vehicle than in his 4-runner!

I thought I would give them a try and I'm glad I did. I've put 73K on it in less than two years and it's been a great ride. I had to replace a water pump at about 64K, but that's been the only issue. I was the first person at the dealership to need one. I also replaced the timing belt, which had to be removed anyway to get to the pump. With a 5-speed, I get around 28mpg no matter what I do.

Other years of Daewoo Nubira
Are you having problems with your 2001 Daewoo Nubira?
Coby McDermott 2024-10-28
This has been a decent car, especially considering the challenges that arose from Daewoo's bankruptcy. During the first five years of ownership (bought new), I only needed routine maintenance such as the timing belt. However, after five years, I experienced some expensive repairs. Unfortunately, Daewoos are not worth much and can be hard to sell. I have also had some issues with my brakes that several repair shops have been unable to fix. While they still work, they are not as efficient as other cars' brakes. Based on my experience, I would not recommend this car to others. I feel like I was misled into purchasing a car from a brand I had never heard of before. I learned a valuable lesson from this experience!
