Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“Driving down the interstate highway going about 65 - 69 MPH, the right wheel tire started shaking violently, and squealing then, it started wobbling but I was able to get it to come to a complete stop after it spun around a few circles. I got out of the car and noticed that the right rear wheel was sticking out and crooked. I took the car to the dealership right after that, and they replaced the knuckle, link, bolt and tire rod. The suspension got extremely messed up that I've still been unable to get the suspension back to somewhat normal. This costed me 948.01.”

The vehicle was taken to an authorized dealer where the contact was told the front driver's side control arm was causing the squeaking noise. The vehicle was repaired. Approximately one month later while driving approximately 20 MPH the contact heard a loud banging noise. The vehicle was pulled over and the contact noticed the front driver's side tire was flat. The contact began examining the wheel and noticed there were two holes in the rim. …”
