Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“Wheel bolts broke. Previously, I had three wheel bolts break during removal. Dealer and manufacturer denied warranty claim as result of pot hole. Recently, I had a wheel bolt break during installation. While using a torque wrench, the bolt broke before reaching the specified torque. The wheel bolts are fragile and failure in service could result in the loss of a wheel.”
