1 Carrier/rack problem

Failure Date: 04/03/2017

Got the car state inspected on April 3 2017. The tech informed me that all 4 tires were separating and cracking. Advised to replace tires.

2 Carrier/rack problem

Failure Date: 04/29/2016

Tcm has been fixed three time in the last year under warranty. The extended warranty to 150,000 miles will be here before I know it. The transmission still shutters between 1st and 2nd gear. Also my speakers started crackling even with the radio turned off. While driving or having the car turned on my radio randomly pops and there is no sound from the radio, cd player, sync etc. It's scary thinking my car is only 5 years old and the system seems to be failing. I maintain my car regularly and to have transmission issues non stop and now the radio. (which I had a 2000 Ford focus for 12 years and it never had these issues).
