| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: At about 51,000 miles my car began making loud squeaking noises from the front end every time you pass over a small bump in the road. it also developed major vibrations in the steering wheel and the brake pedal when the car was slowing up to stop. when i took the car to the chrylser dealer i was told that the inner tie rods were metal to metal and it also needed new rack and pinion steering. this amounts to nearly $1,000 expense on a car just a little more than one year from the time the warranty expired. the car is dangerous to drive since the steering can go out. i had very little advance warning of this problem and am not prepared to invest this kind of money in order to have a safe car for me and my family. we had planned to drive this car on vacation in three weeks. if i had not taken it to the dealer to investigate, it very well might have caused a fatal crash with my two sons in the car. *ak |
