Consumer Description

A FEW DAYS AFTER PURCHASING MY VEHICLE, I WENT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP COMPLAINING ABOUT PROBLEMS WITH THE FRONT LEFT TIRE. THE DEALER TOLD ME THAT THIS WAS NORMAL AND BECAUSE I HAD NEVER OWNED A TRUCK BEFORE ,THAT I WAS JUST BEING PARANOID. HE TOLD ME TO GO AND ENJOY MY TRUCK . A FEW WEEKS LATER,I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AFTER PULLING OUT OF THE INTERSECTION, SPEED HADN'T EVEN GOT UP TO 40 MPH YET, WHEN THIS CAR STOPPED IN FRONT OF ME TO MAKE A TURN . I GOT ON MY BRAKES . THE TRUCK ACTED AS IF IT WAS GOING TO STOP , THEN SUDDENLY I HEARD A POP OR BREAKING NOISE . THE TRUCK WOULDN'T STOP , SO I TURNED TO TRY AND GO AROUND THE VEHICLE AND MY WHOLE WHEEL CAME OFF CAUSING MY TRUCK TO GO TUMBLING OVER INTO A TRENCH AND LANDING UPSIDE DOWN. *JB
