Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“I have taken my Escalade to the dealership for a shudder issue. They have agreed to fix the transmission since I am at 35k miles but they come up and said my wheels are bent. After my rotation last year, both wheels are now on the rear of the truck. I know that I have not hit anything or went over anything that could have damaged my wheels. This has to be some type of defect but the dealership wants to charge $1600 for two wheels. As I said, my truck only have 35k miles and I am the only one that drives it. …”
