Consumer Description

AFTER MAKING A TURN A VIBRATION STARTED WITHIN A FEW BLOCKS THE CENTER OF THE LEFT REAR WHEEL BROKE OUT AND THE OUTER PART OF THE WHEEL WITH THE TIRE CAME OFF THE CAR AND ROLLED ACROSS THE STREET AND HIT A HOUSE. THE REAR OF THE CAR CAME DOWN GRINDING ON THE ROAD. TRIED TO FIND A USED WHEEL AT LOCAL SALVAGE YARDS BUT WAS TOLD THAT THEY CANT KEEP THEM BECAUSE THEY ARE SELLING THEM THAT FAST. GOOD THING I WASN'T ON THE INTERSTATE GOING TO WORK.
