Known issues reported by owners and MOT testers.
- Coolant Expansion Tank Cracks(Moderate)
The plastic coolant tank can develop hairline cracks, leading to slow coolant loss and potential overheating.
- CVT Transmission Shudder and Hesitation(Serious)
The CVT automatic transmission develops shuddering during acceleration, particularly between 20-40 mph. The belt can slip and the transmission may eventually fail completely.
- Ignition Coil and Spark Plug Failure(Moderate)
The 1.0L and 1.2L engines are prone to premature ignition coil failure, causing misfires. Heat soak in the tight engine bay accelerates coil degradation.
