What owners wrote

Vehicle pulled out of business complex turn in left about a car lengths away from me when he pulled out..attempted to stop but vehicle was too close. No air bags deployed.

Reported at 84,000 miles, June 2014 Crash

Had tires changed at dealer. After tire change, two of the tires began leaking. After several trips to the dealer to have them checked, dealer finally decided that the chrome-plated rims were corroded and had to be replaced. Now, after having two more tires replace, the new tires are leaking and I am afraid that I will have to pay for two more rims.
