1 Wheel problem

Failure Date: 03/19/2015

Driving down the freeway the rear passenger wheel locked up. Had to cut across two lanes of traffic to the side. The wheel still totally locked when it had to be dragged onto a flat bed. Luckily there was no injuries. Still not 100% sure or what's wrong but guessing it has something to do with the traction/abs control system. They really should look into a recall because this seems to be a common issue.
