Known Issues for This Vehicle

Brake fluid leaks

Hydraulic brake systems can suffer from leaks in the brake lines, master cylinder, or wheel cylinders, leading to reduced braking efficiency.

Worn brake pads or shoes

Over time, brake pads or shoes wear down and need to be replaced to maintain proper braking performance.

Brake system corrosion

Moisture in the brake fluid can cause corrosion in the brake lines and components, which can lead to brake failure.

Master cylinder failure

The master cylinder, which generates hydraulic pressure for the brakes, can wear out or fail, leading to a spongy brake pedal or loss of braking power.

Brake caliper issues

Calipers can seize or develop leaks, causing uneven braking or a dragging brake.

Vacuum booster problems

The brake booster, which uses vacuum pressure to assist braking, can fail, making the brake pedal hard to press.

Fuel injector clogging

The electronic fuel injection system can develop clogged injectors, causing poor engine performance or misfires.

Timing chain wear

The 3F-E engine uses a timing chain, which can stretch or wear out over time, leading to poor engine timing and performance issues.

Head gasket failure

The 3F-E engine may develop head gasket issues, leading to coolant leaks, overheating, or oil contamination.

Ignition system problems

Issues with the ignition coils, spark plugs, or wiring can cause misfires or poor engine performance.

Vacuum leaks

Vacuum hoses and connections can deteriorate, leading to engine performance issues and poor fuel economy.

Oxygen sensor failure

A faulty oxygen sensor can cause poor fuel mixture readings, leading to decreased fuel efficiency and increased emissions.

Throttle position sensor issues

A malfunctioning throttle position sensor can affect the engine's throttle response and overall performance.
