A month after purchasing the vehicle was having ongoing problem with the left front end pulling to the left while driving. Dealership has serviced the vehicle several times over the years to no avail. Currently, the problem became worse. Dealership indicated that the vehicle was unsafe to drive because the left front bearing was bad, which will result in the tire and rim separating and falling off while driving.
