| 2007 | POWER TRAIN:DRIVELINE | VIBRATION IN REAR STARTED SOON AFTER I PURCHASED CAR. I HAD IT IN FOR SERVICE 4 TIMES SINCE FEBRUARY 2007 AND THEY FIXED THE REAR BALANCED THE DRIVE SHAFT AND PUT NEW TIRES ON,BUT THE VIBRATION IS STILL THERE. AS YOU GO 45 MPH AND THEN GO FASTER YOU CAN HEAR THE NOISE LOUDER. AFTER THEY PUT THE NEW TIRES ON THEY SAID THE PROBLEM WAS OK AND ALL THEY HEARD WAS ROAD NOISE. WHEN I ROAD TESTED THE CAR I HEARD THE NOISE AGAIN. I'VE HAD THE CAR IN FOR SERVICE 4 TIMES FOR THE SAME PROBLEM. *TR |
