Wheel studs are of inferior quality, which leads to galling. Replacement of a wheel results in snapped studs. I have replaced three so far on two occasions within a week.

The tire pressure sensor came on and even after the tires were checked and correct air was put in the sensor would not go off. We took it to the dealer and they said it would cost $170.00 to replace one of the tire pressure sensors they said were faulty. Neither my warranty or extended warranty would cover it.
