Consumer Description
I HAD BEEN FEELING VIBRATIONS WHILE DRIVING AFTER ONLY A FEW MONTH OF OWNERSHIP. I TOOK CAR TO DEALER FOR SERVICE ON 26JULY2019 (6369 MILES) AND WAS TOLD IT WAS BRAKE ROTORS, WHICH WERE TURNED. THE PROBLEM DID NOT GO AWAY. I TOOK IT IN AGAIN ON 25JAN2020 (12811 M) AND ON 12FEB2020 (13700 M). DEALER REPLACED BRAKE ROTORS BUT SMALL VIBRATIONS DID NOT GO AWAY. ON 17FEB2020 (13928 M), I HAD TIRES REPLACED IN AN ATTEMPT TO RESOLVE VIBRATIONS. VIBRATIONS BECAME STRONGER OVER TIME. ON 4NOV2020 (20678 M) I TOOK CAR TO DISCOUNT TIRE AND HAD WHEELS BALANCED. I WAS TOLD ALL FOUR WHEELS ARE OUT OF ROUND BUT R/R IS THE WORST BENT AT .025 AND THE L/R IS ALSO BENT AND CRACKED. THIS IS A HIGH PERFORMANCE VEHICLE THAT I DO NOT RACE OR MISTREAT. THE WHEELS SHOULD DEFINITELY BE STRONG ENOUGH FOR STREET USE WITHOUT RISK OF BENDING OR BREAKING. I NOW HAVE UNSAFE WHEELS ON A HIGH PERFORMANCE VEHICLE.
