Example complaints

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

“1. This problem started immediately after I purchased the auto. Something in the front part of the auto makes a throbbing noise. It causes either the left front wheel or the right front wheel to lose its balance. This does not happen all the time. In a one hour trip, it will happen at least once and for a period of from 5 minutes to 20 minutes. 2. One of the front wheels or both lose their balance. It feels as if the some of the lugs holding the wheel are lose. I was stopped once by the police because the police thought it was dangerous. I was on my way to the auto dealer. …”
