Got my first system malfunction at around 10k miles

You also had your 12-V battery go bad at one point, right?

 

Yes, I had the dead 12v battery replaced just last month.

I also hit a pothole a couple of weeks ago and it misaligned my front cross camber. I did report the pothole to the Long Beach Public Works and to my surprise, it was paved and repaired in a few days!

I also filed a claim with the City Clerk for the wheel alignment costs.

 

I found this pic of the freeway entrance from 12/23 and the pothole was already there. It probably got bigger and deeper after all the rain in LA area when I hit it.

 

I see neither a pothole nor a traffic lane. Potholes are the size of a pot by definition. LOL

 

That was in Dec 2023 when it was still a small hole and it was at the freeway entrance to 405 south

 

I just got my car back today from the dealer after leaving it there for 2 days.

Day 1 - Dealer diagnosed the “System Malfunction” warning and ordered the parts.

Day 2 - The part was received late in the day and the replacement was not completed until the following day.

Am satisfied that the dealer diagnosed it right the 1st time. I have enclosed invoice stating the cause of the warning and the corrective action.
