Several owners describe uneven or excessive tread wear, with tires wearing out at low mileage and needing repeated replacement despite alignments and rotations.
Some drivers noticed steering pulling or drifting toward the passenger side on the highway along with front tire chunking, distinct from the overall tread wear complaints.
Multiple owners report rear coil springs breaking unexpectedly, sometimes discovered during unrelated service visits or after hearing rattling noises, occurring even with vehicles otherwise well maintained.
One owner experienced a stabilization warning and loss of braking during a turn that resulted in a crash into a barrier.
