Consumer Description

FRONT WHEEL BEARING FAILURE, CAUSING BOTH FRONT WHEELS TO LOOSEN ON THE HUB, I IMMEDIATELY TOOK IT TO ME MECHANIC WHO STATED BOTH WHEELS WERE READY TO FALL OFF. UPON RESEARCH, THIS PROBLEM SEEMS TO HAPPEN ON SIGNIFICANT NUMBERS OF THESE VEHICLES DO TO DESIGN FLAW OF FRONT SUSPENSION. THE SUSPNSION IS NOT DESIGEND FOR THE WEIGHT OF THE NEWER MODELS JIMMY. *AK
