4 wheel auto locking hubs failed, dealer stated that both sides need repaired even though it's only the left side that is defective.
The free wheel locking hub was not unlocking when shifting from 4 wheel drive to 2 wheel drive, which caused a shrill grinding noise while driving. I took the car to the dealership and they replaced the hub. They told me they have had a rash of these complaints lately.
4x4 wheel drive hub locked and caused the vehicle to slip out of 4x4 wheel drive. Wheels locked up and caused the vehicle to slide into a tree with snow on the ground. Dealer has been contacted.
