Faulty Trucks* USA - UPS under Attorney General investigation after lawsuit claims
Syracuse,NY,USA -News 10 Now, by Brian Dwyer -22 Feb 2007: -- UPS mechanic Dan Peterson was not only fired once from his job, but twice. He's currently on this third stint with the company... Peterson is now suing UPS because he said he was fired for being a whistleblower... In his lawsuit, Peterson claims he began finding UPS trucks with "severely rusted, cracked and sometimes broken chassis frames"... When the trucks were taken to repair shops, the work was "performed in a careless, shoddy, substandard and unworkmanlike manner"... In March of 2006, Peterson "red tagged" four trucks, saying they were unfit for the road. He claims the next day, UPS had them back on the streets with no repairs... That same day, he removed the vehicles' inspection stickers so they couldn't be driven... He was suspended and then fired for what UPS says was, "falsification of company and legal documents, poor workmanship in the repairs you made to the vehicles and failure to follow methods and procedures"...Labels: faulty trucks
