I brought my car into my family mechanic to get an inspection after I noticed severe shaking when breaking and a burnt rubber smell. They determined the left front caliper was hanging and needed to be replaced- the caliper is covered under my warranty, so I brought my car into the dealership - service department at dealership was unable to detect the issue for weeks until I gave them detailed instructions on how to find the issue, once they agreed the caliper needed to be replaced, the part was backordered until late August - I got my car back after they changed the caliper and the issue is still happening after long drives- dealership is still unalbe to detect the issue - I am being told after market brakes are the issue.
The wheel system has some kind of squealing in it.
On or about July 17, 2020, I was traveling on an interstate at approximately 63 mph when I experienced a sudden loss of air pressure in right front tire. There was no warning and nothing on my dash indicated that pressure was low at any tire prior to the incident. I almost lost control of the vehicle, but was able to regain control of the vehicle and get to the breakdown lane. The tire lost all air pressure and the rim hit the pavement destroying the rim. The tire and rim were replaced by the dealer that day. The tire was a continental procontact TX 205/55r16 89v. Dot a3t2 wc39 2919.
