Consumer Description

THIS IS VERY DISAPPOINTING TO HAVE TO EXPERIENCE SO SOON WITH A BRAND NEW TRUCK. THE LOCATION OF THIS WIRING HARNESS IS IN AN AREA THAT UNLESS YOU HAVE SIDE STEPS AND MAYBE EVEN THEN, IS NOT PROTECTED. EVEN THEN THE WAY THE WIRING HARNESS COMES OUT FROM WITHIN THE WHEEL WALL MAKES NO SENSE. I'M ATTACHING A FEW PICTURES SO YOU CAN SEE WHAT OCCURRED. LUCKILY, SOMEONE SAW THE WIRE DRAGGING AND TOLD ME BEFORE IT WAS TOO LATE. I PUT UP THE HARNESS AND TAPED IT TO HOLD IT UP. THIS COULD HAVE HAD A HORRIBLE OUTCOME HAD THE WIRES CONTINUED TO SHRED OR MAKE CONTACT WITH ONE ANOTHER.
