Owner complaintsComplaints are reports submitted to NHTSA by owners and drivers. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a complaint does not establish that a defect exists. Volume is influenced by how many of a vehicle were sold, how long it has been on the road, and how much attention an issue has received.

I AM CHOOSING TO STAY ANONYMOUS FOR FEAR OF RETRIBUTION BY THE MANUFACTURER. THE PRODUCT IN QUESTION IS A HYDRAULIC BRAKE LINE UNION, MANUFACTURED AND DISTRIBUTED BY AGS COMPANY AUTOMOTIVE SOLUTIONS, 2651 HOYT ST., MUSKEGON, MICHIGAN. THE PRODUCT, PART NUMBER BLU-3 IS A STEEL UNION USED TO JOIN (2) 3/16" BRAKE LINES WITH INVERTED FLARE SEATS. IT IS WIDELY DISTRIBUTED IN THE AFTERMARKET AS WELL AS USED IN A VARIETY OF KITS THAT THEY SELL. THE INTERNAL THREADS ARE MALFORMED AND NOT TRUE TO THE CENTERLINE OF THE FITTING. ADDITIONALLY, THE SEAT AREA THAT BISECTS THE FITTING IS NOT CENTERED. IT IS MY OPINION THAT THESE TWO NON-CONFORMING ISSUES COULD LEAD TO THE FITTING LEAKING OR WORSE DETACHING IN USE, LEADING TO A CATASTROPHIC BRAKE FAILURE.*DT *TR

Too few reports in this category for a page of its own — they appear in the full complaint list.

Higher-selling and older vehicles accumulate more reports. Counts are not failure rates and are not directly comparable between vehicles that sold in very different numbers.
