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.

RECALL CAMPAIGN 01V170000 CONCERNING FMVSS 120 WEIGHT DISTRIBUTION. WHILE DRIVING 30-40 MPH, THE VEHICLE LOST HEIGHT CONTROL ON THE LEFT FRONT SIDE. THIS CONDITION CAUSED THE LEFT FRONT TO DROP. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A REPAIR SHOP, AND THE MECHANIC DETERMINED THAT THE LEFT FRONT CONTROL VALVE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED, AND THAT THE OTHER TWO CONTROL VALVES SHOULD BE REPLACED AS WELL. THE CONSUMER LOOKED ON NHTSA'S WEBSITE AND FOUND THE ABOVE RECALL INFORMATION, AND CONTACTED THE MANUFACTURER'S REPRESENTATIVE, WHO INFORMED THE CONSUMER THAT THIS VEHICLE WAS NOT COVERED UNDER THAT RECALL. *AK *SC *JB
