What owners report

2009-05-01, Wheels
WE HAVE A 2008 GRAND JUNCTION, WE BOUGHT IN OCT. OF 2007. ONE MONTH AFTER WE BOUGHT IT WE NOTICED A WHEEL WAS NOT RIGHT AND WE HAD IT CHECKED AND FOUND THAT THE SPINDLE NUT WAS PUT ON WRONG. WE HAD THAT FIXED AND THEY CHECKED THE OTHER WHEELS TO SEE IF THEY WERE OK. NOTHING ELSE WAS FOUND. WE WENT ON A TRIP TO PA.,( JULY OF 08) AND ONE OF OUR TIRES STARTING WEARING, SO WHEN WE GOT BACK TO FLORIDA WE HAD OUR DEALER CHECK IT OUT AND THEY FOUND THE BEARINGS WERE BAD. THEY TOLD US THE BEARING WARRANTY IS ONLY FOR 6000 MILES OR 6 MONTHS. WE DID NOT HAVE OUR WARRANTY BOOK TO DISPUTE THIS AND PAID OUR DEALER $134.79 TO FIX THE BEARINGS ONLY. WE STILL HAVE A BAD TIRE, THAT NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. WH
