Example complaints

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

“I am the original owner of this vehicle. This vehicle is used on standard suburban and highway paved roads. No dirt or special condition driving. In march 2011 at about 82,000 miles, the front wheels started making a grinding noise which was noticeable at speeds of 35mph or greater. The dealer replaced the right front hub and bearing assembly. This solved the problem. Then at 87,943 miles in september 2011, the same grinding noise happened to the rear wheels. The dealer replaced the left and right rear hub assemblies and bearings. This solved the problem. …”
