- ✓Inspect the rear discs and calipers carefully because hybrids that do lots of short trips can carry heavy corrosion on the back brakes.
- ✓Operate the power tailgate several times and listen for groaning struts or a tailgate that hesitates near the top of its travel.
- ✓Try the Remote Touch controller and every climate/audio function, as laggy screens and unresponsive inputs are frustrating and expensive to sort properly.
