Consumer Description

I HIT A SMALL HOLE IN THE ROAD WHICH CAUSED MY WHEEL TO BEND AND IT NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. THIS WILL BE THE 3RD WHEEL I AM REPLACING FOR THE SAME REASON. I WAS NOT DRIVING ERRATICALLY WHEN THIS HAPPENED. I FEEL THE CAR SHOULD HAVE BEEN ABLE TO SUSTAIN THIS ORDINARY ROAD HAZARD. ALSO, THE CAR/STEERING WHEEL VIBRATE AT CERTAIN SPEEDS. I HAVE HAD THE ALIGNMENT DONE, TIRES REPLACED/BALANCED. NOTHING HELPS THIS CONDITION. *AK
