The engine enters 'limp mode' with reduced power, often accompanied by error codes like P132600 or P211800. This can be triggered by moisture, after a car wash, or potentially related to knock sensor issues. Dealerships may have difficulty diagnosing or may offer temporary fixes. Estimated repair cost: $200 - $1,500.

Recalls and complaints point to potential failures in the fuel pump module. This can lead to a check engine light, rough running, or a complete loss of drive power. Parts availability for recalls can sometimes be a concern. Estimated repair cost: $300 - $1,000.

Electrical System Glitches

While less critical than powertrain issues, electrical system complaints include intermittent problems like horn malfunctions. These can stem from wiring issues or component failures. Estimated repair cost: $100 - $500.
