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:
A transmission shudder under light-to-moderate acceleration is caused by a leaking front pump due to a worn bushing, which requires replacement of the pump as well as the torque converter. (1993-96)
Automatic transmission:
Bad seals in the transmission lead to premature friction component wear, which causes shudder when starting from a stop. (1993-95)
Automatic transmission:
Automatic transaxles could take several seconds to engage at startup because of a problem with the valve body. (1993-95)
Automatic transmission:
A defective throttle-position sensor, not a transmission problem, could be the cause of late, erratic, or harsh shifting. (1994)
Engine noise:
Hard starting and a miss at idle can be traced to defective fuel rails. (1993-94)
Engine noise:
Clatter in the valve train on 3.5-liter V6 may be due to damaged rockers and camshaft. Revised parts are available. (1993-96)
Engine noise:
The motor mount on the left side of the engine tends to break. (1992-93)
Vehicle noise:
If front end makes a squawking noise over bumps, strut striker caps may need to be replaced. (1998-2000)
