Common Issue 1:
Water pump leaks (especially on V6 models).
Common Issue 2:
Transmission issues: hesitation, slipping, or failure to shift properly (particularly in earlier models or with the 62TE transmission). Fluid flushes and updates are often recommended.
Common Issue 3:
Interior rattles and trim fitment issues.
Common Issue 4:
Check Engine Light due to various sensor failures (e.g., O2 sensors, EVAP system components).
Common Issue 5:
Brake pad and rotor wear can be higher than average due to vehicle weight and intended use.
