If the car has had regular service, these are about the only things that routinely fail regardless of the service record. The engine is otherwise very reliable. Nice car. Do check for a new battery and rust at the bottom door seals. Too bad it's so far away from Florida... I could use a white one to go with my black one.
No base in 2004. How a mechanic can find something wrong with sensors that have not failed is a bit puzzling. True if a code has been set then they have failed.
So really the only thing to do is check for any codes that have been set.
I would be more concerned with body damage due to accidents.
