💥 2 involved a crash 🚑 1 reported injury

Steering 10 reports

🔍 Steering should be tight and centered — no play, clunks or wandering. Test at low and highway speed; listen for power-steering whine.

Electrical System 2 reports

🔍 Test every electrical feature: windows, locks, infotainment, charging and all lights. Watch for flickering, dead accessories or warning lights.

Forward Collision Avoidance 1 report

🔍 Have a trusted mechanic inspect this system as part of a pre-purchase inspection.

🔍 Brakes should feel firm and quiet — no grinding, pulsing or pulling. Check for an ABS light and uneven pad/rotor wear.
