Braking System:
Front: Ventilated discs, Rear: Drums (standard on most models), Rear: Discs on higher trims or specific markets.
Airbags:
Driver and front passenger airbags were standard or optional depending on trim level.
Oil Change Interval:
Typically every 7,500-10,000 miles (12,000-16,000 km) or 6-12 months, whichever comes first. Refer to manual for specific engine oil viscosity.
Timing Belt Replacement:
Crucial: Typically around 60,000 miles (96,000 km) or 4 years for interference engines. Failure can cause severe engine damage. Manual will specify exact interval and procedure.
Engine Oil Type:
API SG or higher. Viscosity likely 10W-30 or 10W-40 depending on climate. Manual will provide precise specifications.
