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.

HAD A SECOND TIRE BLOWOUT OF BFG 225/75R16 TIRES ON OUR COACHMEN FREELANDER. DRIVING AROUND 45 MPG ON SMOOTH ROAD WITH TEMP APPROXIMATELY 65 DEGREES. TIRE TREAD PEELED OFF THE ENTIRE THING EXCEPT FOR AN APPROXIMATELY 10 INCH STRIP. IT DESTROYED THE GAS INTAKE LINE. GOOD THING WE DIDN'T HAVE ALOT OF GAS IN THE TANK. A FEW MONTHS AGO HAD THE SAME THING HAPPEN WITH ANOTHER BFG TIRE (WE BOUGHT 3 OF THEM). THAT ONE CRUSHED THE EXHAUST PIPE. AT THE TIME WE DIDN'T ATTRIBUTE IT TO A DEFECTIVE TIRE BUT AFTER 2 OUT OF 3 BLOWOUTS WE WILL HAVE THE 3RD ONE TAKEN OFF AS SOON AS WE CAN GET THE GAS INTAKE REPLACED & CAN GET TO A TIRE DEALER. WE CALLED BFG & THEY'RE LOOKING INTO IT...THEY WANT US TO SEND THEM THE TIRE!!! OUR INSURANCE COMPANY SAID DON'T SEND IT. *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.
