| Description of the problem | I took my car to a licensed auto repair shop due to a rattle come to find out that the subframe is rusted. The car only has 84000 miles on it and now i dont feel safe. Since purchasing it i have had to put a water pump, power steering pump on new bearings in the front and. Front suspension. The car has been to the dealer for regular maintenance oil changes and such. The car was built in 12/ 2007 . I noticed a recall on 2007 jeep compass due to bad steel so i believe my 2008 compass should be included in the recall due to faulty parts. |
