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.
Air conditioner:
A problem in the hazard-flasher switch circuit prevents the air conditioning from working. (1993-95)
Climate control:
Using a nonoriginal-equipment air filter allows hot air to be drawn into the air pump causing it to fail. (1993-95)
