Example complaints

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

“While attempting to do some work on said vehicle I began to jack it up with the scissor type jack provided by the manufacturer. After raising the vehicle body about 3 inches the screw thread on the jack stripped out of fitting in the jack dropping the vehicle. While no one was hurt or damage done I feel this a dangerous situation. Had the vehicle been higher or one of the tires removed when the jack collapsed injury could have occurred.”
