Example complaints

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

“On 9/6/2007 I had a flat tire. I took it to the tire place, I bought a new tire that they installed. As I drove away I heard a clicking sound and I went back to the store. Two studs were backed up a little and loosened the nuts. On 11/23/2007 I had to replace two tires. I tightened the studs. I drove several hundred miles and then on 11/29/2007 I was on the freeway and suddenly the car was shaking and hard to control. I reduced speed and pulled onto the shoulder. I called for a tow truck and towed the car to the Lexus dealer. All the nuts were broken on the drivers side rear tire. …”
