Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“Incorrect wheel base, no apparent physical damage, problem has been since purchase. It cause brakes to grab/chatter, steering to lock on braking and extreme pulling in either direction. In addition to uneven tire wear. Nearly hit a telephone pole head-on when steering locked on braking and on another occasion nearly avoided hitting a car as braking system doesn't stop vehicle correctly (not ABS related-brakes grab/release/grab unevenly allowing vehicle to continue forward)”
