“When in motion, strong crash noise on the front passenger side suspension even after changing the shock absorber at the dealer. It is happening since ive communicated at 8000 miles services. I am affraid that my family is not safe in this car.”
NHTSA complaint #11024075, filed 2017-09, 8,000 miles“Takata recall. The drivers side axel boot started making a clicking noise at only 25,000 miles. I have been told that the whole axel needs to be replaced. This has not been from any damage caused to the vehicle, just normal driving conditions wear and tear. This component should not have started having problems at only 25,000 miles. I first noticed it when slowing down to brake, and now it does it when you slow down to stop and when you take off again. My vehicle only has 39,000 miles on it. …”

Three weeks ago, I was driving & the system shut down while I was in transit on the freeway (bw parkway) - headed to baltimore city from bowie city in maryland and rebooted itself. The fear is that the car will shut down one day, not just electronically, but also the engine, which could cause a fatal accident. …”
