Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“We were traveling on i10 west bound on fairly good pavement at 70mph and the rear drivers side wheel broke off. Resulting in a crash. We had no work done to the wheels since the car was delivered from the dealer. We had no indiction that a problem existed until the failure. Two lug s:bolts broke and the remaining four were striped and bent. I am trying to find if the lugs: bolts on the other wheels can be tested for fractures and determine a cause of the accident.”
