Typical suspension symptoms owners report

Rear trailing arms and their frame mounts rust through and break, sometimes leaving the vehicle undrivable.
Wheel studs snap during routine tire rotation or checks, with some owners finding multiple studs broken at once.
Rear control arms shear off, in one case after brake work, nearly detaching the wheel from the axle.
Tires wear out far earlier than expected, with owners reporting replacement well short of the tires' rated mileage.
Wheel alignment drifts out of specification, causing vibration and uneven tire wear tied to worn rear struts and control arms.
Steering pulls to one side after turns, accompanied by vibration at highway speed that persists after tire changes and alignment.
