CarComplaints.com Notes: How can we give the 2001 model year a "seal of pretty good" when it has some problems with a slipping transmission and a known problem with the speed activation control switch? Because it's not the 2002. That's how.

One thing you missed. The P0300 error can be caused by a bad MAF or Mass Air Flow Sensor. I had a problem with P0171 and P0174 errors and cleaned the MAF sensor. I reset my codes and it ran fine for a couple of days, then I started getting P0300 errors and other related error codes, and performance sucked. I talked with a friend who owns a repair shop, and he suggested the MAF had failed. I changed it, and now it runs better than it has in years.
