WHEELS
Potential Consequences:
I purchased GV80 in Genesis of Cumming, GA in May 6, 10:00AM, on the same day, while driving on the highway returning home, low tire pressure warning was poped up in the center cluster, then right after rear-driver side tire unexpectedly ripped off from the rim, causing me to lose control of the car and almost causing a serious accident. No symptoms recognized before incident while I drive on the flat road. Anyway, fortunately I could make the vehicle stopped without any minor collision and body injuries except rim damage and paint peel off on the rear bumper. After parking in a safe place, looking at the other tires and saw a damaged tire is on front the driver's side. (Rim is clean) In this case, the dealer who delivered the vehicle to the customer without inspection is also a problem, but it is the fault of the car manufacturer that manufactured the defective vehicle and sold it without quality inspection. All vehicles in stock must be inspected for all tires and taken over by the customer for safe riding.

SEAT BELTS
Potential Consequences:
The second row passenger seatbelts are difficult to reach because they do not angle high enough for the user to easily latch. While they work well for a normal adult, children have difficulty latching the belt from a booster seat, especially if a Weathertech or similar seat protector are present. Secondly, the middle passenger belt latch is not identical in size to its left and right counterparts. Difficulty accessing the right passenger latch may lead to people attempting to use the middle belt latch as an alternative. This will fail to latch if attempted using the right passenger's belt. The manufacturer should consider standardizing all belt latch mechanisms.
