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:
When the hands-free system is used, in vehicles with the navigation system, the radio may come on spontaneously, and/or the CD may eject requiring reprogramming the audio system software and, in some cases, replacing the amp. (2007)
Door handles:
Door locks may not work in cold weather due to ice forming on the latch requiring installation of an improved latch. (2007)
Fuel door:
The fuel-fill door may freeze shut in cold weather due to ice in the hinge assembly and a revised part has been issued. (2007)
None:
The tire pressure warning light may stay on despite proper inflation due to problem with the sensor(s) in the wheel(s). (2007-08)
Suspension noise:
Clunking or knocking noise from rear suspension on some vehicles due to distorted shock bolt. (2007)
