AFTER TIRE BLOWOUT, USED JACK TO CHANGE TIRE. JACK SLID OUT FROM UNDER RAM 2 TIMES. DO NOT RECOMMEND USING THIS JACK...EXTREMELY DANGEROUS!!!*AK

WINSHIELD WIPERS OCCASIONALLY QUIT WORKING WHEN FIRST TURNING THEM ON FOR USE. IT DID NOT MAKE A DIFFERENCE IF VEHICLE WAS RUNNING FOR AWHILE OR JUST STARTING VEHICLE. IF WIPERS WERE LEFT ON EVEN THOUGH INOPERABLE, THEY SOMETIMES STARTED WORKING LATER. *AK

CONSUMER HAS TO CONTINUOUSLY FIGHT TO KEEP VEHICLE ON ROAD. TOOK VEHICLE TO DEALER, AND THEY REPLACED STEERING BOX. BUT PROBLEM REOCCURRED, AND VEHICLE HAS BEEN AT DEALERS 6 TIMES SINCE THEN. *AK

WHENEVER BRAKES ARE APPLIED IN A SUDDEN / EMERGENCY STOP IT CAUSES VEHICLE TO CONTINUE ON BEFORE STOPPING. VEHICLE BEEN AT THREE DIFFERENT DEALER SHOPS; TWO DEALERS INFORMED CONSUMER THAT NOTHING COULD BE FOUND, AND OTHER DEALER INFORMED CONSUMER THAT ABS SYSTEM NEEDED REPLACMENT. PLEASE FEEL FREE TO PROVIDE ANY FURTHER DETAILS ON THIS MATTER. *AK

CONSUMER WAS TRAVELING ABOUT 50MPH, AND ANOTHER VEHICLE CUT CONSUMER OFF TO MAKE A U-TURN. OTHER VEHICLE STOPPED DEAD IN FRONT & CAUSED CONSUMER TO REAREND IT. UPON IMPACT, FRONT AIRBAGS DIDN'T DEPLOY. DELAERSHIP WILL BE CONTACTED. *AK

NO DEPLOYMENT OF BOTH FRONTAL AIRBAGS DURING COLLISION, TWO INJURIES DURING COLLISION. *MJS

WHILE DRIVING 50-55 MPH 3 OF 5 BOLTS CAME OFF RIGHT FRONT TIRE. RIM WAS DAMAGED, DEALER TOLD CONSUMER SINCE HE ROTATED TIRES HIMSELF HE WAS TO BLAME FOR BOLTS COMING OFF. *AK

WHILE ON A GRAVEL ROAD IT WAS NOT RAINING, VEHICLE SWERVED TO AVOID HITTING A DEER, LOST CONTROL AND HIT TWO TREES, AND WENT IN A DITCH, UPON IMPACT, NEITHER AIRBAG DEPLOYED. *AK *SLC

TRUCK CAME WITH OE WHEELS-16X7 STEEL/BRIGHT TRIM RING QUANTITY OF 4 PLUS SPARE. 3 OF THE 4 WHEELS HAVE CRACKS. THIS VEHICLE HAS NEVER BEEN USED ADVERSELY NOR HAS IT EVER BEEN USED IN ANY OFF-ROAD CONDITIONS. MILEAGE IS DAILY DRIVING ONLY. MY QUESTION IS: HAS THERE BEEN ANY RELATED REPORTING OF THIS DEFECT OF THESE WHEELS ON ANY OTHER VEHICLE OF THE SAME MAKE, MODEL OR DIFFERENT MAKE, MODEL, ETC.? SHOULD I CONTACT THE DEALER DIRECT OR USE MY INSURANCE CLAIMS ADJUSTMENT? IF YOU HAVE QUESTIONS FOR ME DIRECTLY, PLEASE CALL OR EMAIL. *AK
