Buy a cheap OBD 2 scanner. You can get them a Walmart now. Plug the scanner into the OBD Port ( which is located under the steering column) the scanner will tell you any fault codes.

Check the back brakes,for some reason this year (2000,2001) go threw rear pads quick. So ask if he or she replaced the rear calipers
