Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“While entering my driveway, the wire cable which attaches the spare tire broke, causing the spare tire to drop to the ground. This 1/8 inch wire cable is the only thing holding the spare in place. When it breaks, the wheel falls out on to the road. It did not cause a problem, since it happened at low speed, while entering my driveway. However, I would hate to be following a vehicle, at highway speed, if the same thing should happen.”
