“I recently purchased this vehicle used with salvage title on february 6, 2021. I took it to be inspected and I needed both belts replaced, they had to tighten back down my struts in front, my power steering was acting funny and making noise and my intermediate speed shaft sensor is going bad because the check engine light keeps coming back on for the same code. There was damage to the vehicle but they didn't tell me that it was serious damage. …”
NHTSA complaint #11398986, filed 2021-03, 108 miles“My tire pressure light was on, so I pulled into a convenience store that has a combination inflation-pressure check machine. I checked one tire & had no issue. I checked/filled the next tire & didn't notice an issue immediately. I went on to the 3rd tire, and heard a pop, then a hiss. All air was leaving the tire. I then noticed the second tire was doing the same thing. According to the tire store, it was the valve stem pressure sensors. …”

NHTSA complaint #10554783, filed 2013-12, 132,000 miles“Low tire pressure light came on. Found valve stem cracked and leaking air from its side. Has happened to two different valve stems. Southern car never exposed to salt. Valve stems look new. Tire store charges over $200 to replace each one.”
NHTSA complaint #10548459, filed 2013-10, 40,000 miles“I have purchased multiple sets of new tires for this car because I am having the same issue that all the complaints say about the tires wearing on the inside walls. I have had a few professionals look to find what is causing this and none of them can find anything. I now experience shaking of my car while driving over 40 MPH. My tire pressure light comes on and off whenever. Just in the past year I have purchased 6 new tires. I am afraid I will die in an accident if driving on the freeway. Please help!! …”
