Example complaints

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

“Vehicle pulled hard to the left (the side I wanted to pass on) when passing gear was used. I came very close to hitting the car to my left. The dealers service manager claims this is normal due to torque knuckle steering. (it happened when he drove my SUV and he told me that I would have to get used to it!!! We also tried another SUV and experienced the same problem, please note; the service manager told me that bigger tires would probably solve the problem. When I told him that the SUV is under warranty and that I would not pay for them he dropped the subject). …”
