Consumer Description

FACTORY INSTALLED HITCH RECEIVER IS SEVERELY TWISTED. THE ISSUE HAS DEVELOPED OVER THE PAST 4 YEARS BUT WITH VERY INFREQUENT USE. IF THE VEHICLE HAD DONE A LOT OF HEAVY TOWING THIS UNIT WOULD HAVE FAILED FOR SURE. THIS COULD HAVE CAUSED A VERY SERIOUS ACCIDENT IF THE FAILURE WERE TO HAVE BECOME CATASTROPHIC. I HAVE COME TO DISCOVER THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM ENCOUNTERED BY THE MAJORITY OF THOSE WHO HAVE USED THE VEHICLE FOR ANY INTERMEDIATE TOWING. *TR
