The contact noticed that the front drivers side tire and wheel had become detached from the vehicle. As a result, the contact crashed and the air bags failed to deploy. A police report was filed and there were no injuries sustained. The vehicle was towed to the dealer where the technician diagnosed that the wheel hub assembly failed.
Started hearing noises from the brakes, took to shop, and was told it was not under warranty even though there are only 30,000 miles on it. They had to turn the rotors. Also tires are falling apart. Another issues is with the 4 wheel drive it doesn't engage properly.
