 Description of the problemWheels: premature tire wear (prior to tire mileage warranty) along with unexplainable warping of the rims. Tire blow out and/or handling/steering issues can cause accidents and safety hazards, thereby putting an owner into a physical damage situation, as well as by standers. Wipers: rear wiper fluid does not spray, straight stream down the center of rear window; wiper blade doesn't contact 'straight' rear window thereby decreasing visibility which in turns initiates and intensifies safety/accident hazards, not to mention defeats the need/usefulness of the rearview mirror. Front windshield: the 'straight' up and down form causes it to be a catch all rather than an aerodynamic deflector, allowing the windshield to become a physical hazard, when an object hits it with penetrating force. The secondary issue is numerous windshield replacements, which most insurance companies do not cover thereby causing recurring, and tremendous, financial hardship on an owner. Rear tailgate hatch: breaks and hangs by wiring harness alone, making the tailgate/rear hatch virtually inaccessible and unusable. This then becomes a nuisance factor as well as a safety hazard when an owner would need to access and remove the spare tire. Since license plate illumination is required by law, a broken hatch handle clearly puts an owner in violation of this law, thereby causing legal implications and excess cost factors when he or she receives a ticket for a non-operations tag light.

  • What is Recall?

    A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
  • What is Failure?

    Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
