| Description of the problem | There is a grinding sound that seems to come from the passenger's front quarter of my kicks. I cannot replicate it. I has happened several times and seems to decelerate the car. It normally happens when i am pulling out of my apartment complex. I cannot recreate the issue. I took the vehicle into a dealer a few weeks ago for an oil change and asked them to check it out. They said nothing seemed wrong and of course they could not recreate the sound either. I don't know if it is coincidence or not, but my fuel efficiency has seemed to decrease as well. It use to be around the 27. 7 area and now it hovers in the 25. 7 range. Both of which are below the estimates when i bought the car. |
