The contact owns a 1997 Honda CR-V. while driving approximately 45 mph, a loud metal on metal noise emitted outside of the vehicle. The contact was able to continue driving and the vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic who informed the contact that the universal joint was defective and required replacement. In addition, the rear differential mount and drive shaft would need to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired and the manufacturer was made aware of the problem. The approximate failure mileage was 94,000. The VIN was unavailable.
Car has had all scheduled maintenance. When you turn sharp either direction it makes an awful whining noise. When you reach around 60 mph the steering column starts shaking and you can feel the car shaking under the drivers seat. After several trips to different repair shops and being told that it just needs an alignment and having this done 3 times the vehicle still isn't fixed. Also in July of 2003 one of the tires lost it's tread in one giant piece wich flipped up and severely damaged the hatchback, bumper and running lights. Bridgestone tire. Going less than 30 mph at time of accident. The inside dome light has an electrical short and doesn't work except maybe one day in 3 years.
