Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

I looked at the other side of the column, and the right pivot pin was halfway out. I tapped them back into place, and they went back into place easily. I have discovered another driver of the make and model who has told me that his pivot pins have fallen out more than once.”

This same exhaust valve issues occurred with many other GM corvettes with the 7.0liter z06 motor.”

The side wall of the tire completely collapses while executing a sharp turn either going forward or backing up. Detailed discussion with supplier discount tire and second hand communication with the michelin leads me to believe that michelin and discount tire are both aware of the problem. The absolute fact is the tires do collapse when making a sharp turn. If one makes a sharp turn with any speed or acceleration will cause the tire's sidewall to collapse. …”
