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.

Brakes: Water can enter the parking brake cables and freeze in cold weather rendering the parking brakes inoperative unless rubber boots are installed on the cable ends. (1999-2000)

Check-engine light: Crankshaft position sensor fails causing check-engine light and drivability problems. (1999-2002)

Fuel gauge: Incorrect fuel gauge readings are caused by a defective resistor card in the fuel sender. (2001-02)
