Consumer Description

VEHICLE WAS MANUFACTURED WITHOUT TOW HOOKS AT THE FRONT OF THE VEHICLE. IT GOT STUCK IN SOFT WET SAND ON A CAMPING TRIP. NO MEANS WAS AVAILABLE TO EXTRACT THE VEHICLE WITHOUT ATTACHING A TOW CHAIN DIRECTLY TO THE CHASSIS. WHEN VEHICLE WAS PULLED OUT, THE FRONT SPOILER AND BUMPER WERE DAMAGED.
