Example complaints

“At the end of a 1320 mile (round) trip from fairfax, virginia to brunswick, georgia and back, the left front wheel hub suddenly disassembled, locking up the wheel and sending my 2000 Chevrolet Suburban out of control. Fortunately, I had left I-95, wher I had been travelling for 10 1/2 hours at 70 MPH, and was travelling on a side road. There was no warning. The wheel made a loud, grinding noise and then immediately locked up. …”
NHTSA complaint #10002692, filed 2003-01, 57,620 miles“Center hub of factory alloy wheel (left front) has 2 visible radial cracks. The vehicle is currently at the dealer for service and GM is replacing the cracked wheel and checking the other 3.”
NHTSA complaint #10018997, filed 2003-05, 42,000 miles“My 3 yr old son has received 2nd degree burns to 3 of his fingers from reaching through the rim of our Suburban. I would like to see all car makers to make the rims differently so little fingers do not get into danger! I have called GM as of 10-13-05. I would like to see some type of guard placed on all rims to prevent this from happening to someone else. Please contact me to advise me of your findings.”
NHTSA complaint #10139642, filed 2005-10“Original wheel has a crack going through the entire rim. No external damage to the rim just a crack that appears to be ready to cause complete failure of the rim. I have pictures of the cracked wheel which is very scarey when you imagine our family of 6 driving at 65-70 MPH while on vacation. I have kept the wheel for review by anyone that would like to see it in hopes that if there is a problem, this might help avoid unnecessary problems. The crack appears to have been there for some time as it is not a clean metal appearance. …”
