Example complaints
Suspension: “My rear axle bent wearing the tires down to the belt. The axles are rated for 3500 pounds each or 7000 maximum for both. The weight of the unit empty is 6575 with a maximum cargo of 1107 pounds, for a total weight of 7682. The manufacturer is essentially telling me to overload it by their safety placards. Upon contacting the manufacturer the usual run around telling me it's out of warranty etc, and I must have overloaded it. This is a safety issue a broken axle at highway speeds would be disastrous. I believe the manufacturer should replace the undersized axles, to avoid an accident. …”
