“Went on a trip about 300 miles away from home. When we got there the next day my rear passenger tire was low. Every day sense then I have had to put air in my tire. Took it to get it looked at and my rim had cracked on the inside they said I must have it a pot hole on the trip. I how ever was the only one driving the nitro the whole time and nothing was ever hit. This isn't the first time I have had problems with theses rims every winter I have to get them cleaned b/c they erode and cause leakage.”

“Horn honks whenever it wants. Abs, esp/bas, traction control, and check engine light come on. Abs esp/bas and traction control lights were intermittent but now are consistent. Engine code comes and goes and says it cant communicate with tipm. Occasionally when parking and pulling out of a parking spot it feels like there is no power steering/ runs rough while turning sharply but there is no leak in power steering and it is an intermittent problem.”
