First engine lights starts to come on - second notice that one morning car starts to make loud sqeaking noise - third take it to the mechanic (49000mi) and he can't figure out what's wrong - he replaces entire front...axle, boots, etc. Car still makes same noise and sounds like it's about to fall apart.
