Thinking about a new shiny Hummer H2? Do you already own one? If you do you may want to get it serviced immediately.
Grede Foundries of Wauwatosa has been blamed for a link to 26 incidents where wheels or front suspension components fall or break off of the Hummer H2 SUV's. Federal Traffic and Safety officials are investigating the claims. The incidents surround the the apparent fracture of the steering knuckle, which connects to upper and lower ball joints... This fracture causes the steering knuckle to break or come loose, some happen at a stand still, others happen in a more dangerous situation... At highway speeds.
The Federal Traffic and Safety administration are still investigating.
