Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“I was driving home from visiting friends who live about 13 miles from me on a hot sun. Afternoon on a 2-lane country road. I began to notice some sway on the curves about 1/3 of the way home. As I was driving into the city limits I realized the rear tire had gone flat but drove about 1 block so I could pull off safely. As a result the tire received some damage which made it difficult to determine the exact cause of the flat. …”
