| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: There was a problem with the front end of the car before i bought it, i was told by the dealer that everything was checked and all it needed was a rotate and tire balance.a few months later i take it in to have it checked becuase it has gotten worse. all left turns would make the driver side slam down like i hit a pothole and it made teribble noises going over bumps. a different dealer told me i needed four new tie rods and a rack & pinion. i had those replaced, the tie rods were not under warranty, i also had the ac compressor, transmission service,and transmission cooler lines replaced. the repairs did not make a difference, and the service department tells me oh we should have told you about the other problems,cradle bushings and sway bar links. i knew this service depatment was not worth the troubles so i took the car to my personal mechanic. he found the rear cradle bushings were gone, there was nothing protecting the cradle, the sway bar links were ok. i had new cradle bushings installed but the front is still shakey and the steering has become worse since a new rack & pinion was installed. the car wonders on the freeway, shakes at all speeds and there are stiff spots in my steering. i have the old bushings, not the other parts that were replaced.*ak |
