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.
Check-engine light:
The check engine light may illuminate and a trouble code may be set for the fuel system because fuel leaks into the fuel pressure sensor for which there is an improved part. (2007)
Doors:
A cold air leak may be felt at the door gap on vehicles with dual zone A/C due to loose grill in the B-pillar. (2007)
Headlights:
Automatic headlights may switch on or off too quickly, too slowly or randomly if windshield is not replaced properly. (2007-08)
Steering problems:
Steering wheel vibrations could be caused by a front driveshaft imbalance. (2007)
Sunroof/moonroof:
The rear sunroof may reverse direction during closing due to high friction caused by the shade being jammed. (2007)
Sunroof/moonroof:
Water may leak from the sunroof if the drain hose is kinked or plugged, but may also be due to insufficient sealing of the corners during production. (2007)
