| Description of the problem | At first my car was wearing out tires often ( 83, 068 miles) than it also started having a rough ride... Thumps, clumps and clicks when you drove or turned the wheel, than the ride got rougher, it honestly gave me headaches from the noise as the wheels rolled on, ( i got tire rods , control arm and ball joint replaced in june 2014, seven months later control arm, ball joint and tie rod broke, (my wheel was dangling apart from my car) as i was transporting my son to his bus stop, 'luckily no one was injured" my car was towed to a mechanic($600. 00), i had my car repaired and was informed the right side was in dire need for ($465. 00). This car requires a lot of suspension work, i currently have 87,000 miles on my car now , (fairly low) my car now stalls out when i stop for a red light,it has even putted as if the gas isn't circulating to the engine, 'major issues". |
