- Clutch Actuator Fluid Leak(Serious)
An internal leak in the hydraulic clutch actuator can lead to an electrical short and is a known fire risk. Most affected cars were recalled.
- DCT Hesitation & Shudder(Moderate)
The 6-speed DCT can feel hesitant or "shudder" when pulling away, particularly in cold weather or stop-start traffic.
