Description of the problem | I had my 3rd flat tire in a parking lot, my husband came to change my tire, he used the breaker bar he used before (only way to get tire off) and 4 bearings broke, this led to me needing a whole new hub assembly and tire, i don't feel that a 2 year old car should need a new hub assembly especially because the tire replacement tools that come with the car do not work when trying to take the tire off my bill was over $600 and the car is only 2 years old |
