Inspect the Transmission: Pay close attention to the automatic transmission, especially on V6 models. Look for smooth shifts and no slipping or harsh engagement during a test drive.
Check for Rust: Thoroughly inspect the undercarriage, wheel wells, rocker panels, and door sills for any signs of rust or previous repairs.
Verify Maintenance Records: A well-documented service history is crucial, particularly for timing belt replacement on V6 engines (every 100,000 km).
Test All Electronics: Ensure all power windows, mirrors, sunroof, and climate control systems are fully functional.
Pre-Purchase Inspection: A professional mechanic's inspection is highly recommended to uncover hidden issues.
Consider 2.2L vs 3.0L: While the V6 offers more power, the 2.2L 4-cylinder is often considered more reliable due to fewer known transmission issues.
