Consumer Description

SUBJECT 2006 DTS VIN NO [XXX] I HAD MY FIRST FLAT TIRE IN ABOUT 15 YRS. I DECIDED TO SAVE TIME AND CHANGE THE TIRE MYSELF. ONCE I JACKED THE CAR UP FAR ENOUGH TO LET WEIGHT OFF THE RIM THE JACK BUCKLED WHICH COULD HAVE BEEN VERY UNSAFE. THANKFULLY I WAS ONLY LEFT STRANDED. ARE THE QUALITY OF ALL GM JACKS MADE SO POORLY? I CONTACED A FAMILY MEMBER WHO PROVIDED AN ADEQUATE JACK. I AM GLAD I NOR ANYONE ELSE WAS HURT DUE TO THIS JACK FAILURE. I INTEND TO PURCHASE A NEW TROLLEY JACK TO CARRY WITH ME AS A REPLACEMENT FOR THE LESS THAN ACCEPTABLE JACK WHICH CAME WITH THE CAR. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR
