Engine and powertrain complaints dominate owner reports, with many describing loss of traction and the vehicle sliding on slippery surfaces. Electrical system issues (particularly a tire pressure warning light that stays on from the moment of purchase and cannot be reset) account for a substantial share of complaints. Tire-related reports echo the sensor warning theme, with the indicator illuminating during normal highway driving.
