Engine Overview and Common Failures

The engine number JNC1 is located at the junction of the block and the gearbox. It is a very reliable motor, but in the early years it could cause trouble with the electrical system. On forums, people often complained about sudden battery discharge and failure of the inverter. The first cars were also recalled due to leaks in the fuel tank crossover. Even owners of 2022 cars report regular coolant leaks. But the main problem with this unit is the very high cost of spare parts.
