Consumer Description

ABOUT TWO WEEKS PRIOR I STATED TO HEAR A SCRAPPING SOUND LIKE THE BRAKES WERE WORN DOWN. THE SOUND WOULD COME AND GO. THEN I PARKED THE TRUCK. I GOT READY TO LEAVE THE BUSINESS I WAS AT. I PULL OUT FROM THE CURB AND WENT ABOUT 50 FEET AND THE TRUCK STOPPED. I BACK UP A LITTLE THEN WENT FORWARD AND STOPPED AGAIN. I IMMEDIATELY PULL INTO A PARKING LOT AND GOT OUT AND CHECKED THE RIGHT FRONT TIRE. IT HUNG OFF THE HUB AT A 45 DEGREE ANGLE. THE NEXT DAY I WENT BACK TO SEE WHAT WAS WRONG. I JACKED THE TRUCK UP AND THE WHEEL CAME RIGHT OFF. THE WHEEL BEARINGS HAD MELTED INTO THE HUB. I HAVE NOT NOTIFIED ANY ONE ABOUT THIS. I BOUGHT THE TRUCK USED 2 YEARS AGO FROM A DEALER. SO I DO NOT KNOW IF I HAVE ORIGINAL OR REPLACEMENT PARTS. IT COST ME OVER $300 TO GET THE TRUCK REPAIRED. THE GUY THAT REPAIRED IT SAID THIS WAS HIS SECOND ONE IN A WEEK. NOW I HAVE TO GET A FRONT END ALIGNMENT. MY TIRE ARE WEARING OUT ON THE INSIDE. *TR
