Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“My wife was driving on 190 headed east and without warning the right rear wheel snapped off, and she spinned around about three times before coming to a halt, facing the flow of oncoming traffic. No other vehicles were involved. Date was sept 98 //// 15 jul 99. Driving on 195 with my entire family and some friends at about 70 miles per hour the left rear wheel snapped off without warning and we began to skid about 150-200 meters. The van fishtailed. But I compensated it with my steering. After coming to a halt we found out that we were skidding on our gas tank, which was busted at that time. …”
