Typical suspension symptoms owners report
- Front strut failure causes loud popping noises over bumps or uneven roads, sometimes returning even after dealer replacement.
- Owners report premature rear wheel bearing failure, in one case around 35,000 miles, which triggers ABS, traction control, and cruise control warning lights and causes uneven tire wear.
- Front passenger side camber goes out of alignment and cannot be adjusted, leading to strut replacement under warranty.
- Tires, including factory-installed Kumho and aftermarket Toyo units, show tread chunking, sidewall cracking, dry rot, and bulging well before expected tire life.
- Some owners describe repeatedly replacing rear tires every few months due to rapid bald spots and exposed wiring.
- Vehicles vibrate noticeably at highway speeds above 65 mph, which owners tie back to tire tread separation.
