Common issues with the Carnival

Cole_breaker · Dec 3, 2024

I've seen a few weird things happening with the Carnival. To help new owners, let's share any problems you've had that needed fixing.

Here are some common issues:

Dead battery (new cars)
Fuel door stuck
Engine jerks when you step on the gas
Radar sensors acting up

I also had a weird one:

Rear liftgate won't open or close

Let me know if you've had any other problems. I'm curious to see what's most common.

I've also had issues with the radar sensors acting up. A weak 12V battery seems to be a common cause for odd electrical glitches, like the rear liftgate problem you mentioned.

My friend had a faulty injector that was covered under a recall and replaced at no cost. He hasn't had any issues since
