Description of the problem | I would like to report 2 safty defects with my 1998 dodge durango. First is the poor quality wheel studs. During various tire rotations at a qualified service center, six studs have broken (twice at the dealer). I'm really worried that at some point a wheel may come off while i'm driving. Second, the drivers power adjust seat rocks back and forth during braking & acceleration. This is annoying and i'm afraid that eventually, it's going to break all the way loose.*jb |
