If it’s an 07, I’d check the ignition coils. They tend to misfire randomly. Also, check for water leaks around the spare tire area. It tends to leak over time. Also check for mold from water seeping through the doors. I’d suggest resealing the door panels, as the bags behind them can unseal over time.

The coils and valve cover gasket are already on my shopping list. I’ll check the spare tire area too. I plan to redo the door panels and reseal them. I have some water in the rear passenger floor.
@Leif
I’ll get that sealed up soon. Thanks.
@Leif
I used a few coats of Gorilla Glue spray for waterproofing. Three coats on a sunny day, and the inside stayed dry all winter. No leaks in the spare tire area so far.
Never let it go.
I actually like the flat red color.
Just a thought, you could spray it with plastic dip to make it look new. Or just wax it.

I plan on repainting it. The previous single-stage paint job looks terrible. I’m thinking of adding some flake to it.

It’s an old school single stage. You’d be surprised how much difference a good polishing can make.

True, I’ve seen a good polishing job on single stage, but this one was done with a ‘I know a guy’ special, and the prep was bad. It’d be fine if it was just a daily driver, but not for much more.

Honestly, it just looks like a cheap flat paint job. Flat paint tends to have a terrible finish.
