First flat tire warning and no flat tire. Then an actual flat tire and "no warning".
Now got stuck in snow and after spinning wheels for a few minutes...
BRAKING / DRIVING STAB.
Brake and drive control systems malfunction.
Anyone else had this happen?

Had an "Emission Increase" Service Check light come at 4000 miles. Found out it was because I drove about a block without screwing in the gas keep. Set off the check light and my service department checked and reset it. Have trhem check it out.

Sounds like it all might have to do with spinning wheels (except the flat). I know when I took my old car in for emissions test, I would always get the ABS light after it was on the dyno. Did the error clear when you re-started the car?

Trust me, that was not an insult, but a compliment. Think you took it the wrong. If it is read by others as offensive as well, I will shot an email for the comment to be removed. Also, I entered the comment after my wife made the actual joke... she is Japanese and I don't think she'd offend herself.
My apologies anyway.

I am chinese, that did not seem offensive at all. when i saw the qoute, i actually called my gf over to take a look at it, we both had a good laugh, and i made fun of her the rest of the day (she's very tempermental, just don't do anything to piss her off or i'll be in the guest room tonite) .
all good, don't worry about it

Anybody who gets offended by ANYTHING that another person says has no one to blame but themselves. It's your own damned fault for allowing another person to affect you.
It was a freakin' joke.....

Well done: insulting half of the women in the world at one fell swoop, and even including all the Tsunami sufferers at that !
A new board record for offensiveness.
