Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“I have purchased a conversion van that has been modified by an aftermarket upfitter but sold as new on a franchised Gmc dealership lot. The van carries two placards with conflicting gvwr information. These vans are being modified in mass quantities. The rear springs have been changed to soften the ride but are inadequate to support the weight of a 3/4 ton van. The tires that are being installed on these vans for vanity reasons are not of the correct weight rating for a 3/4 ton van. We have had major issues with the tires failing and the rear springs bending. …”
