Example complaints

“There has been a creaking sound coming from the front suspension area for over a year. I'm very good at getting my car serviced. At the last tire rotation, I had this checked out & the tech pointed to the problem-said it was a drying out of seals, but posed no driving problem. Still, creaks like crazy. Tech said greease wouldn't solve the problem. I am the origial owner; I have less than 48 k miles on the car.”
