Typical suspension symptoms owners report

  • Owners report sudden and repeated tire blowouts or sidewall failures, in some cases multiple tires failing within months of ownership.
  • Several owners describe severe vibration or shaking at highway speed, sometimes appearing after the recall tire replacement or a related software update.
  • Owners report tread separating on the inside edge of the factory Hankook Ventus S1 noble2 tires, discovered during routine tire rotation around the median 25,200-mile mark.
  • Multiple owners describe repeated replacement tires (including Michelin and Continental ContiProContact) also developing sidewall bubbles or tread separation after the original recall repair.
  • Some owners report long delays getting recall parts, with tires unavailable at dealers for an extended period after the notice was issued.
  • Owners note that reprogramming the tire speed limiter, required to fit non-Hankook replacement tires, lowered the car's top speed rating.
