Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“Hitting a bump at highway speed (55+ MPH) causes the front end to shake violently as if the front tire has blown. Steering becomes difficult as the front end shutters. Slowing well below highway speed brings it back to a controllable state (had to pull over and completely stop once). Effect is worse as speed increases, above 70 MPH is nearly unrecoverable.”
