AT THE TIME OF PURCHASE THE DEALER COULD NOT GET BOTH SIDES OF THE BACK SEATS TO LAY FLAT ONLY THE RIGHT SIDE. ANOTHER COMPLAINT IS I TOOK MY VEHICLE TO THE SHOP BECAUSE IT SOUNDED LIKE THE RIGHT FRONT TIRE WAS WARPED AND WHEN THE MECHANIC DID THE DIAGNOSIS OF THE FRONT THE HUB ASSEMBLY HAD TO BE REPLACED.

THE SPARE TIRE THAT IS ON THE BACK OF THE 1998 CHEVROLET BLAZER ZR2 , BLOCKS YOUR VIEW. ESPECIALLY TO SMALL VEHICLES. I HAVE HAD 1 ACCIDENT BECAUSE OF THIS. *NLM

I ALSO WANT TO TELL YOU ABOUT A 1992 CADILLAC THE ALLOY WHEELS OF OUR FLEETWOOD ARE BAD. WE HAVE PUT MANY DIFFERENT TIRES ON AND THEY ALL GO FLAT BECAUSE OF THE ALLOY WHEELS. YOU WILL BE GOING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AND THE TIRES GO FLATE. NOONE SEEMS TO BE ABLE TO FIX THEM BECAUSE THEY ARE ALLOY. *AK

VEHICLE DESCRIPTION: LIGHT DUTY PICKUP TRUCKS AND SPORT UTILITY VEHICLES. THESE VEHICLES FAIL TO COMPLY WITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF FMVSS NO. 108, "LAMPS, REFLECTIVE DEVICES, AND ASSOCIATED EQUIPMENT." THE DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHTS BUILT WITH A CANDELA VALUE GREATER THAN 3,000 CANNOT BE MOUNTED HIGHER THAN 864MM ABOVE THE ROAD SURFACE.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: THESE VEHICLES DO NOT COMPLY WITH REQUIREMENTS OF FMVSS NO. 108.
Remedy: DEALERS WILL INSTALL A REVISED WIRING HARNESS THAT CHANGES THE DRL'S FROM HIGH BEAM TO LOW BEAM DRL'S, AND INSTALL NEW LONG-LIFE LOW BEAM BULBS.
VEHICLE DESCRIPTION: MULTI-PURPOSE PASSENGER VEHICLE EQUIPPED WITH 4-WHEEL DRIVE OR ALL-WHEEL-DRIVE. ONE OR BOTH OF THE ATTACHING NUTS FOR THE RIGHT-HAND LOWER CONTROL ARM ARE UNDER TORQUED. THIS CAN ALLOW THE ATTACHMENT BOLT TO LOOSEN AND SUBSEQUENT BREAK RESULTING IN SEPARATION OF THE LOWER CONTROL ARM FROM THE FRAME.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: THIS CONDITION CAN RESULT IN A LOSS OF VEHICLE CONTROL.
Remedy: DEALERS WILL INSPECT AND RETIGHTEN THE RIGHT-HAND LOWER CONTROL ARM NUTS TO THE PROPER TORQUE SPECIFICATION.
VEHICLE DESCRIPTION: LIGHT DUTY PICKUP TRUCKS AND MULTI-PURPOSE PASSENGER VEHICLES. A FATIGUE FRACTURE OF THE REAR AXLE RIGHT-HAND BRAKE PIPE CAN OCCUR CAUSING A SLOW BRAKE FLUID LEAK RESULTING IN A SOFT BRAKE PEDAL. IF THE BRAKE PIPE BREAKS, THE DRIVER WOULD EXPERIENCE A SUDDEN DROP IN THE BRAKE PEDAL, THE INSTRUMENT PANEL BRAKE LIGHT WOULD ILLUMINATE, AND THERE WOULD BE A LOSS OF REAR BRAKE PERFORMANCE.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: PARTIAL LOSS OF BRAKING AT A TIME WHEN MINIMUM STOPPING DISTANCE WAS REQUIRED COULD RESULT IN A VEHICLE CRASH.
Remedy: DEALERS WILL INSPECT AND REPLACE THE BRAKE PIPE.
