I have 185k miles on my 2016 Expy. I can't rationalize current car prices so I keep making repairs. Here's what I've had to do so far. Hopefully this helps others or someone can let me know what else to prepare for. Main items have been Water Pump, Throttle Body, Rear Shocks, A/C Fan (cabin), A/C coolant lines, and Turbo boost. I replaced Spark plugs at 120k and 170k. I have to replace the tail lights once a year for some reason. My check engine light has been on for 3 years b/c of the catalytic converters, but I can't rationalize the cost to replace (code P0420 / P0430). Lately I've had Cylinder 4 and 6 misfire (P0306) due to bad fuel injectors which is $2,500. I haven't replaced that yet and have had some success with additive cleaners.
I drive 20k miles/ year and am completely irritated with repairs, but also new car prices are ridiculous. Anyone have insight on whether my future repairs will be more expensive than a new car?
