| Description of the problem | The bearings melted into the hub assembly and it wore out the brakes and ruin all four tires, now the lower control arms are going out. I have only 43000 miles on the car and the warranty has ran out at 36000 miles. This should not have happen with such low mileage. Alignment will not stay because of the tires and the lower control arms. There has not been a recall but the hub, bearings are not able to geased. So these parts wear out sooner than normal. |
