Several issues: 1) replace rear strut assemblies. 04/22/19. (the car seemed fine but when they put it on a lift to work on brakes mechanics saw this. 2) the the engine shimmies and feels like it is going to stall. This has gone on since 2016. This happen when going about 30 MPH. I had a mechanic look at it they found nothing. It still feels like it is going to stall. 3) bearings in rear passenger side in 2017. Rear wheels were making noise when driving around 40 MPH. (different mechanic looked at this.
