Electrical System Glitches

Varied electrical issues including warning lights, power loss, and intermittent system failures. These can be linked to faulty sensors, wiring harness issues, or module failures. Estimated repair cost: $200 - $1,000+.

Heater core leaks can occur at relatively low mileage, leading to coolant loss and a lack of heat. Repair is labor-intensive due to its location behind the dashboard. Estimated repair cost: $800 - $1,500+.
