Example complaints

“Front end suspension! I have for the past year been trying to get them to adhere to my findings. There are sounds coming from the end, as though there was a helicopter coming in from the distant. The faster you go the louder it gets. Also, driving real slow or pulling in and out of parking spaces there is a rubbing noise. Even the sound of a metal tap when braking and backing up as though something is shifting. I have put up with arlington rosenthal Mazda for too long with this. I really need assistance from someone and that's just the major problem. …”
