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.
Speedometer:
The speedometer may be inaccurate and/or the ABS warning light may illuminate due to an electrical ground problem inside the right front fender. (2007-08)
Sunroof/moonroof:
The sunroof may not seal completely because its seal becomes deformed. (2007-08)
Windows:
If the auto-up feature of a power window quits working, it is restored by closing the window and holding the button for four extra seconds. (2007-08)
Windows:
The passenger side window may not operate due to a malfunction in the driver's side window switch assembly. (2007)
