What to check first on this selection

Scan for stored OBD trouble codes before you buy or drive far.
Inspect the service history for major repairs and deferred maintenance.
Road test for any symptom listed on the published fault pages above.

Before buying this year window

Review the published problem pages above, confirm open recalls by VIN, check the service history for those repairs, and get a pre-purchase inspection if any listed symptom is present.

Before driving with symptoms

Match what you feel to a fault page above for its drive-safety verdict. Treat brake, steering, overheating, airbag, or fuel-smell symptoms as stop-and-check-now.

Before trusting a seller claim

Ask for records that prove any "already fixed" claim, cross-check it against the known checks above, and verify recalls by VIN instead of taking a verbal assurance.
