Example complaints

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

“While driving down a mountain road with a 5th wheel attached it appeared that the rear brakes on the drivers side were smoking, I pulled over to allow it to cool. We found a Gmc dealership and proceeded there very slowly stopping a number of times to allow the brakes to cool down. 2 miles short of Gmc, there was a loud pop and a tire had blown. We pulled over and while calling roadside assistance noticed fire under the truck. We put it out with a fire extinguisher before the fire department arrived. We were towed to the dealership. …”
