About These NHTSA Complaints:
The NHTSA is the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints can be spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem. See the Back button — blue bar at the very top of the page — to explore more.
When the wheel problem occured I first thought I had a low tire. I stopped and checked all my tires at a sevice station. They were not low and there was no indication that the lugs were loose. When I was almost home, the wheel problem became worse I slowed down and got home. I called a wrecker driver he had to back it up to put it on the wrecker. He said it was in the wheel but did not say the lugs were loose. I heard metal clanking. On the car central recall list the ball bearing can fail and cause the lugs to loosen according to a consumer complaint on your web site. Why was this not repaired before I got the car. There is a recall on this. Why did the dealer not know about the recall" what good is recalls if the dealers and car makers are not notifyng people about them" I have a GM warranty that I paid $600 for they would not pay on this. This could have been serious had I been going faster. At beatty Chevrolet they tried to say I had let the lugs get loose. It happened to fast for the lugs to have been loose when I bought it at interstate motors. Consumer laws have got to be enforced. American lives depend on this. Thank you for your time and effort on this matter. Margaret West.
