Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“The vehicle collapsed while using the vehicle jack to raise the car to remove the front driver's side wheel. The jack was inserted into the plastic jack saddle located in the driver's side rocker panel. The vehicle was raised approximately 4 inches, the wheel was removed, and the jack saddle broke and dislodged from the vehicle causing the vehicle to suddenly and abruptly fall to the ground. The driver's side rocker panel, front fender, door, and front stabilizers were damaged. Additionally, I could have been crushed had I been under the vehicle at the time. …”
