  • Stalling and sudden loss of power

    $600-$2,400

    Fuel delivery, sensors or throttle body faults can cut the engine without warning. The car stalls in traffic, which is a safety problem before it is a repair bill.

  • Steering faults

    $400-$1,600

    Electric power steering units and tie rods can fail in a way the driver feels as a heavy wheel, a clunk or a pull.

    12 matching complaints

  • Brake system failure

    $500-$1,800

    Master cylinder, booster or ABS unit faults can leave the pedal long or the brakes weak. Owners report the pedal going to the floor.

Watch

  • Electrical faults

    $150-$900

    Battery drain, alternator, wiring and sensor faults cluster here. Individually small, they strand the car and mask other failures.

    90 matching complaints · recalls 22V024000, 23V093000

  • Wipers, defrost and visibility

    $120-$450

    Wiper motors, defrost grids and glass faults cut visibility in rain. Complaints cluster around sudden wiper failure.

    53 matching complaints

  • Doors, latches and structure

    $200-$800

    Latch and hinge faults can leave a door ajar while driving. Annoying, loud, and cheap to fix once identified.

    8 matching complaints · recalls 16V219000

  • Infotainment and display faults

    $150-$700

    Screens freeze, cameras go black and control modules reboot. Costly to diagnose, rarely dangerous.
