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.
Electrical problem:
The tire pressure warning light may come on due to faulty monitor in the wheel. (2007-08)
Windows:
The power windows may stop working because a faulty switch in the right door blows the fuse. (2007)
Wipers:
The windshield wipers may not stop or may stop in the wrong spot due to a bad wiper motor and the washers may quit if the front bumper strikes something or gets struck. (2007)
