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)
