problem #2

Venture

  • miles
The spare tire hoist cable snapped and dropped the spare on the ground during normal driving conditions. Corosion of the cable is evident. I found two web sites where a recall was mentioned of this (www.westerndriver.com and www.canadiandriver.com) but found no information here. I must not be the only person to have this problem.
