Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“In december 2018 my car began to make crunching, squeaking and chirping sounds coming from the front suspension when driving slowly over uneven surfaces, small cracks in road, going slowly over speed bumps or up driveway ramps. There is also a noticeable shimmy in the steering wheel at over 30 MPH. In january, my Ford service advisor told me I need to replace both front control arm assemblies for approx $1,700 which comes as a huge shock to me considering my car has only 14,000 miles on it!!! …”
