Consumer Description

IN 2007, WE PURCHASED A 2007 HONDA CRV TO TOW, FOUR WHEELS DOWN. WE PURCHASED THE BLUE OX AVENTA LX, BX7445 TOW BAR CLASS IV (10,000 LB FOR A 2 INCH RECEIVER) AND THE BASE PLATE BX2246 MADE FOR THE 2007 HONDA CR-V\, WE FOUND THAT THE FRONT FASCIA OF THE HONDA HAD PULLED AWAY AND UPON FURTHER INSPECTION, DISCOVERED THE BLUE OX BASE PLATE HAD FAILED. I MEAN, TOTALLY FAILED, THE METAL (NOT THE BOLTS) HAD RIPPED, THIS HAPPENED ON BOTH SIDES, WHERE THE BASE PLATE IS ATTACHED (BOLTED) TO THE FRAME. THE BASE PLATE, WAS NOW ONLY BEING HELD (AND ALSO OUR VEHICLE) ONLY BY THE SAFETY CABLES. *TR
