I purchased the vehicle in 2009 it previously had two owners. I've had minor repairs done already. However, I was curious to know why the vehicle was recalled. As I looked into it I found that im having problems with the engine sensor which I had repaired 2 months ago because the check engine came on but I keep smelling a burning smell and visible smoke.

I purchased a new daewoo nubira in june 2000. In may 2003 the check engine light came on and remained on despite numerous diagnotic and repair attempts. The light remained on for over a year. In january of 2004 I took my car for the now required emissions test, it failed due to the camshaft sensor. I purchased the required part, a camshaft position sensor, on 1/15/04 and paid a mechanic to perform the repairs. The light illuminated again within 3 days of repair. On september 12th, I received a notification of defect from daewoo motoramerica, adressing the said camshaft sensor. One month later the car began to hesitate while I was driving, and would not accelerate smoothly, finally it in may, while I was driving on the highway, all the lights on the instument panel came on, the car began to shake and then just shut down. In regards to the sensor, I believe that daewoo motors was negligent in their responsibility to notify consumers in a timely manner. After visiting several consumer affairs sites, it is apparent that this defect manifested itself as early as 2/2002 for the majority of car owners, yet daewoo has taken 2 1/2 years to notify owners.
