Re: looking at buying used '03 hch with 112k miles and trouble codes
Ok, here is the update.
Ditched the '03 due to advice of this forum, and the bad feeling in my gut.
Went to a dealer in the next town over and found an Certified Used '06 with 61k miles for $17,500 out the door.
A big jump from where we were, but here we are.
We are happy to have spent a little more to have a lot more peace of mind.
Now we have to start tracking fuel economy.

Even if you're good with electrical problems, this car has a battery system that costs thousands of dollars to replace. With service codes that refer to that system, I would be very cautious. Absolutely get the dealer's repair estimate in writing before you buy the car.

With such high mileage in such a short time, you can guess it was mostly highway, which would have been less of a load on the battery.
