Most common problems:

Brake fluid leaks

Hydraulic brake systems can develop leaks in the brake lines, master cylinder, or calipers, leading to reduced braking performance.

Brake fade

Overheating during heavy use can cause brake fade, reducing braking efficiency.

Worn brake pads

Regular wear and tear can lead to reduced braking power and increased stopping distances.

Brake rotor warping

Excessive heat from braking can cause the brake rotors to warp, leading to vibrations and reduced braking efficiency.

Master cylinder failure

The master cylinder can wear out over time, leading to a spongy brake pedal or reduced braking power.

Brake booster issues

Problems with the brake booster can lead to a hard brake pedal and increased effort required to stop the vehicle.

Brake line corrosion

Over time, brake lines can corrode, especially in areas with harsh winters, leading to potential leaks and braking issues.

Vacuum leaks

The brake booster relies on engine vacuum; leaks in the vacuum system can affect brake performance.

Abs malfunctions

Issues with the Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) can lead to warning lights and reduced control during hard braking.

In-line 6 engine problems

Though generally reliable, the inline-6 engine can suffer from issues like head gasket failure, overheating, and worn timing chains.

Fuel injector issues

Clogged or failing fuel injectors can lead to poor engine performance and reduced fuel efficiency.

Engine misfires

Caused by ignition system issues, fuel delivery problems, or compression loss, misfires can affect engine performance.

Exhaust manifold cracks

The exhaust manifold can develop cracks, leading to exhaust leaks and reduced engine efficiency.

Turbocharger wear (if equipped)

The high-output engine variant may have a turbocharger, which can wear out or fail over time, leading to reduced power and increased emissions.

Cooling system failures

Issues with the radiator, water pump, or thermostat can lead to engine overheating and potential engine damage.

Oil leaks

Common in older engines, oil leaks can arise from various seals and gaskets, leading to low oil levels and potential engine damage.

Timing chain wear

Over time, the timing chain can stretch or wear out, leading to timing issues and potential engine damage.
