| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: 2006 chevrolet silverado 1500 extended 0.5 ton: spear-tire lowering device. the plastic tube from bumper to square lowering nipple does not align. when inserting rode into tube you cannot connect with nipple. after 25 min. if fishing around for connection one person must crawl under the vehicle, look through small hole in rim of the spare-tire and with the third link of crank rode push the tube up and have the other person make the crank to nipple connection. the tube was not broken just too flexible and was out of alignment by at least 2 inches. one person far from any help like we were would be in trouble. also, there needs to be a flat metal contact pad on the rear axle that the jack top can rest on. the jack top is almost flat and seeing it resting on a round axle is unsettling. the jack need to also extend at least 1 inch more then it does because at full height the tire barely went on. we could have repositioned the jack further down the axle to get more height. *nm |
