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.

MY EZ LOADER ALUMINUM BOAT TRAILER NEARLY HAD A CATASTROPHIC FAILURE OF THE MAIN TONGUE BEAM THAT APPEARS TO BE A DIRECT RESULT OF WEAK MATERIALS AND POOR LOCATION OF LARGE DRILLED HOLES FOR LIGHTING. WHILE I MANAGED TO CATCH THE SITUATION BEFORE COMPLETE FAILURE, THE CRACKING HAPPENED BEHIND MANUFACTURER INSTALLED LIGHTING MASKING THE INITIAL FAILURE STAGES. MY CONCERN IS THAT OTHERS MAY NOT BE AS FORTUNATE IN SEEING THE PROBLEM. SAFETY CHAINS WILL NOT HELP WITH THIS TYPE OF FAILURE! PLEASE NOTE: THE TRAILER IS AN EZ-LOADER NOT DOOLITTLE MFG. THE WEBSITE KEEPS REPLACING EZ LOADER WITH DOOLITTLE WHEN I GO TO PREVIEW THE COMPLAINT. *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.
