Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“The backrest, which holds the passenger from falling off the rear of this 3 wheeled motorcycle, is manufactured from materials not substantial enough to handle the stress placed upon it, and has broken on one side. If the remaining side fails the passenger can be through from the vehicle. It is my belief that this product is engineered and manufactured in a manor in which someone will be catastrophically injured or the end result will be death if this problem is not corrected. …”
