Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I rented a trailer from u-haul in haltom city, tx. after i drove it home (10 miles) i noticed the tires had 4 by 2 inch spots where the tread had separated off. i returned the trailer and got another. the second trailer had a bearing go out on the freeway in pixley, ca. my call to the uhaul 1-800 number was met with disdain. the csr's had no idea how to diagnose the problem. i was told to drive the trailer over 30 miles to the nearest hotel to await a repair person the next day. i'm surprised the trailer did not catch on fire. uhaul responded to my complaint by failing to respond. i emailed their web site. the referred me to the local haltom city manager and he never returned my call. i do not believe uhaul rentals are safe on the highway. i also do not believe they are enforcing any type of safety program for the thousands of rental vehicles they place on our highways. *nlm
