Air Brake Disc Rotor problem #1

Vehicle pulls to the right while driving, aligned 4 times, pulling caused tires to be replaced twice due to wear on the outside of the tires. Brakes and rotors have been replaced twice, leaking boot axle replaced once. Dealer has been contacted.

Air Brake Disc Rotor problem #2

The brake rotors warped after the car was 6 months old causing brake pad damage. The weather stripping fell off 2 times and has been replaced, but is beginning to fall off again. The lid on the console broke a few miles from the dealership. It has been replaced, but still does not fit right. The power steering hose needed to be replaced after 4 months. The paint is peeling on the bumber and the slightest touch scratches the paint. The dealership has always repaired the problems under warranty. However I continue to have problems(I have to take it in this month). My warranty is running out and I am worried I have a lemon.
