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.
Coolant leak:
A low coolant level warning may illuminate because the float absorbs coolant and sinks. (2006)
Doors:
Rattling from the upper tailgate may be due to a loose ball fitting for the support strut or the ball fitting's reinforcement welds may break. (2006)
Exhaust system:
An internal leak in the compressor's exhaust valve causes problems (and warnings) with the air suspension requiring compressor replacement and reprogramming of the system. (2006)
Water leak:
Water may leak onto the air suspension electrical connector at the left front fender causing problems with the suspension as well as electronic parking brake. (2006)
Water leak:
Various water leaks, most due to problems with roof drain tubes being kinked, pinched or improperly routed. (2006)
