Ever drive the m6 and have an issue getting into 1st? There you go.

The car can't have qualms...it's an inanimate object, and it would be YOU having the qualms in that situation.
Proper use would be "I'm having some qualms about the issues my car has"

1. A sudden feeling of sickness, faintness, or nausea.
2. A sudden disturbing feeling: qualms of homesickness.
3. An uneasy feeling about the propriety or rightness of a course of action. |
i know what he meant, and what the word means....qualm doesn't make any sense in that sentence though.
