Which years to avoid
- 2013 (2009–2013): Timing chain stretch and the 3-5-reverse wave plate in one vehicle: two four-figure failures stacked on the same purchase.
- 2012 (2009–2013): Timing chain stretch and the 3-5-reverse wave plate in one vehicle: two four-figure failures stacked on the same purchase.
- 2011 (2009–2013): Timing chain stretch and the 3-5-reverse wave plate in one vehicle: two four-figure failures stacked on the same purchase.
- 2010 (2009–2013): Timing chain stretch and the 3-5-reverse wave plate in one vehicle: two four-figure failures stacked on the same purchase.
- 2009 (2009–2013): Timing chain stretch and the 3-5-reverse wave plate in one vehicle: two four-figure failures stacked on the same purchase.
What to check before you pay
- 2009–2012 3.6L V6: timing chain stretch; listen for cold-start rattle and check for codes P0008/P0017
- 2009–2013 6-speed automatic: 3-5-reverse wave plate failure, often appearing first as delayed or lost reverse
- 2018–2020: start/stop system complaints, low-speed shudder reports, and infotainment glitches; mostly software-addressable
