In under 4 years/50K miles battery has been changed 4 times. Every time the cause is a bad battery and not a draw. There is an underlying issue with the Mkz electrical architecture. Dealer says this is a common problem.

No discerning issues leading up to the tire failure, it's been multiple failures, induces by potholes or road grates you would normally encounter while driving. In 2 incidents the sidewalls of the tires failed completely ripping the tire sidewall open. One simply just flattened the tire, as of now, the shop is closed today so I don't know if it's repairable yet.
