Consumer Description

THE TOP NUT WHICH HOLDS THE RIGHT REAR BRAKE CALIBER BRACKET CAME OUT ON MY VEHICLE. THE RESULT CAUSED MY VEHICLE TO ABRUPTLY STOP SEVERELY JERKING THE PASSENGERS IN THE TRUCK. THE BRACKET ALSO PUNCTURED SEVERAL CRACKS TO THE INSIDE OF MY RIM CAUSING MY TIRE TO DEFLATE. I HAVE NEVER HAD THE CALIPER NUTS REMOVED ON MY VEHICLE. THE ONLY THING I CAN THINK OF IS THE NUT MUST HAVE VIBRATED LOOSE. THE LOWER NUT WAS LOOSE AS WELL. THE LOOSE LOWER NUT WAS DISCOVERED AFTER REMOVING THE WHEEL TO REPAIR THE DEFLATED TIRE. THE INCIDENT OCCURRED ON SUNDAY, OCTOBER 19, 2008 AT 1:30 AM. MY VEHICLE WAS TOWED HOME FOR REPAIR. A NEW RIM AND BRAKE CALIPER NUT HAD TO BE PURCHASED TO REPAIR MY VEHICLE. *TR
