Typical suspension symptoms owners report

  • Tires blow out or develop sidewall failures, in some cases pulling the truck hard to one side and causing a collision.
  • The rear end bounces or bottoms out over bumps and speed bumps at speeds above 40 mph, especially noticeable on rough roads.
  • Lug nuts become swollen and cannot be removed with the factory-supplied wrench, leaving drivers unable to change a flat tire on the roadside.
  • Wheels get stuck tightly on the hubs, requiring excessive force beyond what the included jack and tools can provide.
  • A noise comes from the front passenger side during turns or when switching between 2-wheel and 4-wheel drive.
  • The steering or a wheel appears to seize suddenly at highway speed, leading to loss of control.
