Before you buy this vehicle
A test-drive checklist generated from this vehicle's own complaint and recall record.
- Try the camera, sensors, and any driver-assist features in a parking lot.A blank or frozen backup camera image and phantom sensor alerts are this vehicle's driver-assistance complaints.
- Sit in it with the engine off and test everything that has a switch.Windows, locks, lights, the cluster, the radio. Electrical faults are this vehicle's story and the hardest to see on a drive: an intermittent no-start waits for the second week of ownership. Ask for the battery's age and whether any control module has been replaced.
- Brake hard once from speed on an empty road.A pull to one side, a pulsing pedal, a pedal that sinks at a stop, or an ABS light that stays lit are the brake complaints on this vehicle presenting themselves.
- Run the VIN against open recalls before you negotiate.This vehicle has 6 recall campaigns on file. Every one is a free repair at a franchised dealer, but only if it has been done; an unrepaired recall is a bargaining chip, not a deal-breaker.
- Ask for the service history in writing, then read it against this page.The complaint families above are where this vehicle fails. A history with repeated repairs in exactly those systems tells you the car had the problem; a history with none of them tells you it may not have been fixed yet.
