Lets see whats gone wrong with mine... o yea all this happened after 49,000 miles

Its a 2000 3.4L with 70,350m

1st: Transmission died due to some type of moisture or some crap like that, well thats what the dealer told me :/. payed like 2-3 grand
2nd: needed new intermediate steering shaft.
3rd: Have needed a number of rotors and pads due to warpage (i never slam my brakes on)
4th: Dexcool got all sludged up had to flush it out(at like 50,000) the manual says Dexcool will last till like 100,000 miles, bullshit! Talked to a mechanic friend of mine he said dexcool actually causes the head gasket to eat away and some of the metals in the engine as well.
5th: Engine mounts are bad have to buy 3 new ones
6th: Driver side window broke needed a new switch or something for like 180 bucks
7th: 2nd Tranny died because the gears started to rip apart(i def dont drive like a dick either) replaced by warranty
8th: 3rd tranny has a solenoid(<---right spelling?) problem car thinks im flooring it when i tap the gas.
9th: Blown head gasket
10th:Fan wasn't working for a week then started


and im sure im forgetting a few things but i keep up on my car and take care of it and its just a piece of shit.
