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.

Steering problems: The vehicle may pull to one side or the other on straight, level roads requiring replacement of the rack-and-pinion steering assembly. (2002)

Wheels: The wheels can be hard to remove due to corrosion between the alloy wheel and the wheel hub unless anti-seize compound is applied whenever a wheel is removed. (2002)
