    There are a few other common issues that may prevent the handle from working. I've heard of a plastic clip failing and causing similar problems, but people have found ways to repair those, too. So, a...

    There is a metal pin in the door panel that the inside door handle hinges on. This pin can slip out of position, allowing one side of the door handle to come out of its hinge, causing it to not open...

    Just an update - at the time of my original posting, apparently the NHTSA database had not yet been populated with the affected wagons. Today, I received a written notice in the mail saying that my...

    Thanks pbierre. No, I don't think any fuel is leaking out, but I'll try to look for a gunk trail when I get the scope in there.

    I don't know for sure where the leak is - the dealer says it is the filler neck vent pipe or filler...

    Hi Chinapat,

    One possibility may be the "clock spring", AKA "contact reel." This is a steering angle sensor in the steering wheel. It goes bad and causes at least an anti-skid message and a DSTC...

    Any tricks to replacing the windshield corner trims? Do they simply slide in/out?
