• An engine that starts slowly or does not start
• Rough idle, stalling, or weak acceleration
• Shaking while driving or waiting at a stop

• Electrical parts that work only some of the time
• An A/C or heating system that does not work as expected
• Changes in steering, braking, or suspension feel
• Unusual exhaust noise or poor engine performance
• Transmission behavior that has changed
