CUSTOMER HAS TAKEN VEHICLE TO DEALER ON 2 OCCASIONS FOR PROBLEMS WITH SRS UNIT(SRS LIGHT STAYS STEADILY LIT WHILE CAR IS ON). CUSTOMER WAS INFORMED THAT THE PROBLEM RESULTED FROM RECLINING PASSENGER SEAT WHILE DRIVING. THE UNIT WAS RE-PROGRAMMED AND THE LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN. CUSTOMER WAS THEN TOLD THAT IT WAS BECAUSE SHE STOWS HER WHEELCHAIR IN THE PASSENGERS SEAT. IF THE CHAIR IS UNRESTRAINED, THE CAR THINKS THAT A PERSON IS SITTING IN THE SEAT AND THE COMPUTER WILL AUTOMATICALLY SHUT OFF THE SYSTEM.

TIRES
I WAS DRIVING ON THE 101 CALIFONIA HIGHWAY (NORTHBOUND) IN AN UPHILL SECTION NEAR AGOURA HILLS, WHEN SUDDENLY WE HEARD A SOUND LIKE "CLACK" TWICE. I WAS TRAVELING ON THE MIDDLE LANE AND SIGNALED TO MY RIGHT SO I COULD PULL OUT OF THE ROAD. THEN, THERE WAS THIS HUGE SOUND, AND I FELT THE PASSENGER'S REAR SIDE TIRE BLOW UP. I ALMOST LOST CONTROL OF THE CAR BUT WAS ABLE TO PULL OUT OF THE ROAD. NEITHER ME NOR MY WIFE & 7 MONTH OLD SON WERE INJURED. WHEN I GOT OUT OF THE CAR, I FOUND OUT THE TIRE'S TREAD HAD SEPARATED AND IT CAUSED THE REAR BUMPER TO BECOME DEATTACHED. I CHANGED THE TIRE AND PUT THE SPARE ONE. THE CAR LOST THE REAR BUMPER AND HAD SOME DENTS AS A RESULT OF THE TREAD SEPARATION. I JUST BOUGHT THE CAR A MONTH AGO, AND THE TIRES LOOKED IN GOOD CONDITIONS.*AK (DOT NUMBER: N/A TIRESIZE: P185/65R14)

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:FOUNDATION COMPONENTS:DISC:ROTOR
ROTORS HAVE WARPED REPEATEDLY, I ONLY NOTICED DUE TO THE PULSATION WHEN I APPLIED THE BRAKES. SEEMS TO BE CONSISTENTLY HAPPENING EVERY 25,000 TO 30,000 MILES. I HAVE A CO-WORKER WHO BOUGHT THE SAME MAKE AND MODEL 30 DAYS BEFORE WE DID WHO IS EXPERIENCING THE SAME PROBLEM. HE HAS HAD TO HAVE HIS TURNED 3 TIMES, AND FINALLY BOUGHT REPLACEMENT ROTORS AT 90,000 MILES. IF THIS IS NOT CAUGHT BY THE OWNER, OR DURING A ROUTING INSPECTION, THE BRAKE SYSTEM MAY FAIL TO FUNCTION PROPERLY, RESULTING IN CRASHES AND POSSIBLE FATALITIES.*AK
