Hose from the air filter to engine separated causing rough idle, harder than normal starting. Never threw a code. Replaced hose and sumptoms disappeared. |
| 2480 mi | The car made a noise on the passenger side when going over speed bumps or just driving. After the third trip to the dealer they felt that they would change the engine mount and see if the noise disappears. It is going in this week. |
| 3100 mi | Engine mount was changed and noise stopped. |
| 16000 mi | the check engine light came on and the problem was evaporation valve |
| 30000 mi | Engine light came on, dealer replaced O2 sensor free of charge, no problems at all since |
| 31000 mi | Intermittent no start issues and the dealer could not find anything wrong and I only had a few miles before the warranty ran out so I traded it off. |
