I am helping my lady keep up this fantastic automobile. Its the nicest car I've ever driven and rodden in of a regular Basis.
But...change the pads early in their life...say w 3K left...u dint want to see the sensor notice. when u do uve Gotta replace the sensors At 175 per wheel.
The brake pads are a routine job. No need to pay the dealer prices, just buy the parts. Easy install for any mechanic.
Soft tires are quiet but don't last too long...get a all weather set and switch them for summer or fall. Buy the tire insurance...we've gotten 3 new tires for free from nails....
Read the manual....lots of features. Great road trip car.
