Equipment problem #1

My tire pressure light keeps coming on at random intervals. Although I have a warranty on my tires and have taken it in 4 different times, I am told every time that the tire pressure is fine and that there is nothing wrong with my sensor. Well, obviously both of those can't be true if my light keeps coming on. It is completely random when the light comes on; when stopped at a light, on the freeway, sometimes as a steady light, sometimes blinking off and on, sometimes when I hit a bump, other times when I've been driving smoothly for miles. This "safety" feature is currently useless.

Equipment problem #2

The exhaust gaskets in this model fail leading to very loud noises from the engine which then leads to terrible emissions and failure of exhaust system. I looked the issue up online (and on this site) and found a TSB (01-024/07) that covered what I thought was the issue. This TSB said that the gasket between the exhaust manifold and cat was causing the noise.
