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.
Audio system:
The CD player skips if the vertical/horizontal switch is out of adjustment. (1995-2000)
Battery:
The Premium-V radio drains the battery if the technician's test equipment is removed before the entire test sequence is finished. (1999)
Horn:
Water gets into the horn and distorts the sound unless a splash shield is installed. (1997)
Transmission leak:
The final drive unit was factory filled with automatic-transmission fluid that leaks from the vent. Later models were filled with final drive oil which will also fix the leak problem on these models. (1994-96)
Consumer Guide® Estimated Repair Costs
