Flat tire while driving. When consumer went to check what problem was, he found out that coil springs snapped and punctured tire. Contacted dealer, and dealer was not willing to do anything. Consumer did not have a flat tire while driving, the vehicle was sitting in consumer's garage and that is when he noticed the flat tire, while changing tire, consumer noticed that the coil spring had snapped, which had punctured the tire and destroyed the wheel speed sensor and made the vehicle not being able to move, vehicle had to be towed.
