Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“On november 7th I was inspecting my brakes and found that all the rubber seals in the front end were worn out or better still the rubber was crumbley and no grease remained. I have 63,000 miles on the 2001 Ford xlt ranger. It seems that this would be a factory inferior product installation at the factory. What recourse do I have.”
