Trouble Spots
Consumer Guide's® Auto Editors have scoured repair bulletins and questioned mechanics to search
for commonly occurring problems for a particular vehicle. In some cases we also give possible manufacturer-suggested
solutions. In many instances these trouble spots are Technical Service Bulletins posted by the manufacturer,
however, we have our own expert looking at additional vehicle problems.
Automatic transmission:
If the transmission slips or will not go into fourth gear, the end clutch needs to be replaced. (1991-95)
Automatic transmission:
The transmission may shift poorly between first and second or develop harsh shifting. It can be corrected by adjusting the kickdown servo. (1991-92)
Hard starting:
Hard starting may be due to a cracked in-tank fuel line. (1991-95)
Hard starting:
Cars with an automatic transmission and 1.5-liter engine may suffer from hard starting or stalling when started when the outside temperature is cool. (1991-92)
Hard starting:
The engine may not start due to a faulty tach filter causing a weak ignition spark. (1992)
Manual transmission:
Manual transaxles may grind when attempting to shift into reverse. A new reverse idle-gear bushing and reverse shift lever may fix the problem. (1991-92)
Water leak:
Water leaks into the truck due to incomplete sealing in the wheel wells. (1991-95)
