Default Watch out for water pump

Yes, it might leak coolant due to a defected water pump. That costs me $800 to get the pump and themo detector replaced at dealer.

Mine also had battery/wiring issue for several times. Other than these, it's a sweet and powerful car to drive, very solid engine and smooth handling. It's heavy so no fear in wind. Definitely feels the difference if you are driving a Toyota or Honda in the same class now.
