Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“Bad vibration caused by the front brake rotors being out of round. Dealer resurfaced rotors two times and now needs resurfacing a third time. The MPV only has 31,000 miles on it. The dealer will not replace under warranty. This should not happen at approximately every 10,000 miles. It is a 2003 purchased new in 2004. The tires are wearing in the front due to the alignment to the point of needing replaced. The alignment should not of gone bad in this short of time.”

The vehicle was taken to a tire dealer who determined the valve needed to be replace and the tire was inflated. In july, one of the other tires were very low. The vehicle was taken to the tire dealer who determined the tread was worn out and the tire was replaced. The tire dealer also determined that all the tread on all tires were worn and needed to be replaced. Only one tire was replaced at that time. …”
