Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“The only event leading to the failure was a loud sound coming from the rear left side of the vehicle. The failure involved a pull to the left and excessive heat being generated from the back left tire. The component that failed ended up being the wheel bearing. I had a mechanic replace it and also kept the old part. The old bearing was scorched (the mechanic showed me) and warped. The bearing could have locked up had it not been replaced, resulting in an accident.”
NHTSA complaint #10414647, filed 2011-07, 30,000 miles“There are times when I am driving at night my headlights will go out. I usually can get them back on. It is scary when this happens. It has happened in rain storms at night and there is oncoming traffic. I have also had a wheel hub that has been replaced when my car was only 1.5 years old. I was told there is no recall on this and I can't find one. I had to pay to replace the new part on a fairly new car. I have the old part in my trunk.”
