- ISG Belt Failure (Mild Hybrid)Serious
The Integrated Starter Generator belt on mild hybrid (SHVS) models can snap due to insufficient belt strength. If this happens, the water pump becomes inoperative and the engine can overheat and stall.
- Brake Caliper SeizingModerate
Road salt and debris can prevent the brake calipers from opening properly, causing them to seize. This leads to uneven pad wear, pulling under braking, and potential overheating of the affected wheel.
