Complaints indicate significant engine issues including stalling, power loss, and catastrophic failures like blown engines or seized crankshafts. Some failures occur at relatively low mileages. There is also a risk of engine compartment fires linked to ABS module issues. Estimated repair cost: $3,000 - $7,000+.

Airbag System Malfunction

Numerous complaints detail airbag non-deployment during collisions and intermittent airbag warning lights. These issues are often linked to the occupant detection system (ODS) or passenger seat sensor problems, and a recall (15V218000) addresses ODS issues in cold temperatures. Estimated repair cost: $300 - $1,500.

Electrical System Issues

Complaints include stalling, warning lights, and intermittent power loss, sometimes related to engine or ESC systems. These can stem from faulty sensors, wiring harness issues, or module failures. Estimated repair cost: $200 - $1,000.

Recall 23V651000 addresses a potential internal brake fluid leak in the ABS module, leading to an electrical short and fire risk in the engine compartment. The remedy involves replacing the ABS fuse, which mitigates the shorting risk but may not fix the leak itself. Estimated repair cost: $1,000 - $2,500.
