| Description of the problem | From the day i drove this brand new vehicle off of the dealers lot i began complaining about a noise when i turned right. I brought it in several times to have it checked out and was told that they could not duplicate the noise so all was fine. Eventually it got so bad that the front end was bouncing. They finally determined after 22 months that it was a bad sway bar bushing that needed to be replaced. |
