  Something you may also think about is : &quot;Checking your gas mileage&quot; at each/ every fill up? &nbsp; &nbsp;I do, and something I&apos;ve found,, was that all of the sudden,,,,,, car ran NORMAL,,,,but gas mileage was lacking........... then , I&apos;ve checked my maintenance book,,,,,,,,,looked up past maintenance performed..........decided to check my Distributor Cap and Rotor,,,,,,,,,&gt; Found &quot;both&quot; &gt; Worn,,,,cracks in the distributor, and rotor worn,,,,it was about 40K since my last replacement.

  There are vehicles with pattern failures, design and manufacturing issues. Examples: Hyundai&apos;s Theta II engines, GM&apos;s 6.2 engine, Ford&apos;s Double clutch transmissions, JATCO transmissions, Stellantis numerous electrical gremlins, Toyota&apos;s twin turbo Tundras, etc. Maintenance matters in a primary way &nbsp;yes, but if &nbsp;there are basic flaws in design or execution, that&apos;s a prime mover. It&apos;s no accident that a 1994 Acura could make it to 600K miles. Those were sturdier, even overbuilt vehicles, those days, with Lexis and Acura. Today it&apos;s different.
