I know nothing about cars but after having to get this car fixed 4 times in the last year I am furious. Here is where it started. I had to replace both front sway-bar links. in January. The noise that was happening went away for about a month. Then I had to replace one of the same parts again. Next there was a new noise, brought it in and I had to replace both ball joints. 3 months later I had to replace another ball joint. Keep in mind I had to get an alignment every time I brought it in. And now my car just failed inspection because yet again….. BALL JOINTS. And my air conditioner stopped working this week as well.
Other than the endless ball joints I do like the car. But I am really tired of this happening, I have spent 1500 in the last year and now I am looking at another 250 for the next repair and god knows what the AC bill will be. Gas mileage is not great and with the constant repairs I might need to consider selling it, which is sad because the car is beautiful and when it's working I do love it.
Car driving awful with a lot of bouncing and pulling while driving - also a horrible squeaking noise - lower control arm on driver front side had to be replaced and told the passenger side would be needed soon.
