| Description of the problem | So since i've purchased my vehicle. All i can hear is clunking noises as if there are no shocks or suspension to this 2007 jeep compass 4x4. I bring my vehicle for an oil change and the mechanic tells me that the front and rear sub frames are completed rotted. These sub frames from what i know is very dangerous if not taken care of. It holds your suspension together. Why isn't there a recall on this matter yet? Are they waiting for someone to die for them to make this issue a recall? |
