Problems:

Brake fluid leak
Hydraulic brake systems rely on brake fluid to function correctly. Over time, the brake lines, master cylinder, or other components can develop leaks, leading to reduced braking efficiency or complete brake failure.
Brake pad wear
Brake pads are a wear item and need to be replaced periodically. Worn brake pads can decrease braking performance and cause damage to the brake rotors.
Abs sensor failure
The Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) sensors can fail or become dirty, leading to malfunctioning ABS and reduced vehicle control during hard braking.
Engine misfire
As a V8 engine with Electronic Fuel Injection (EFI), it could suffer from misfires due to issues with the ignition system, fuel injectors, or sensors.
Oil leaks
V8 engines, especially older models, are prone to developing oil leaks from valve cover gaskets, oil pan gaskets, and other seals.
Timing chain wear
The timing chain in a V8 engine can wear over time, leading to poor engine timing, performance issues, and potential engine damage if not addressed.
Coolant leaks
Aging hoses, radiator, or water pump can develop leaks, causing the engine to overheat.
Fuel pump failure
The fuel pump can wear out over time, leading to poor fuel delivery, engine stalling, or starting issues.
Vacuum leaks
Vacuum hoses and seals can deteriorate, causing air leaks that can affect engine performance and fuel efficiency.
Spark plug wear
Spark plugs need to be replaced periodically. Worn or fouled spark plugs can cause misfires, poor fuel economy, and reduced engine performance.
