Consumer Description

I NOTICED THAT WHEN I HIT A BUMP THE BED OF MY TRUCK BOUNCES ABOUT TWO INCHES, WHEN I LOOKED UNDER THE TRUCK I NOTICED ALL THE SUPPORTS UNDER THE BED WERE COMPLETELY ROTTED. I HAVE ALSO HAD PROBLEMS WITH MY BRAKES. IN LESS THAN 90,000 MILES I'VE REPLACED THREE BRAKE CALIPERS, TWO ROTORS, TWO SETS OF BRAKES, AND THE LAST TIME I HAD IT SERVICED THE BACKING PLATES WERE SO ROTTED THAT THE EMERGENCY BRAKE WOULDN'T WORK AND COULDN'T BE REPLACED WITHOUT ALSO REPLACING THE BACKING PLATES. I HAVE BEEN DRIVING FOR 50 YEARS AND HAVE NEVER EXPERIENCED THIS MUCH ROT. I FEEL THAT THE STRUCTURAL DAMAGE SHOULDN'T HAPPEN THIS SOON, AND FEEL THAT I SHOULDN'T BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE COST TO REPAIR IT. *TR
