Iâve only been calling to follow up on the unresolved safety issues: no fluids, bad brakes (which they claimed to have repaired), and rear tires with no tread at all. When they repaired the brakes, I would have gladly purchased new tires had I been informed.â¨â¨On November 3rd at 8:23 PM, I found myself stranded on the side of the highway once againâthis time due to exposed tread and a large bubble on the tire. Itâs deeply troubling that a vehicle was sold in such unsafe condition. This raises s
* Recall Campaign Number : [018G, 019G] I.
