Consumer Description

WHILE APPLYING THE BRAKES THERE WAS A SQUEAKING NOISE COMING FROM THE FRONT/REAR OF THE VEHICLE. THE PEDAL HAD GONE DOWN AND MADE A SQUEAK NOISE. *AK THE FRONT END BOUNCED AND VIBRATED DUE TO THE PINCH BOLT THAT RETAINED THE STEERING KNUCKLED TO THE LOWER BALL JOINT. (MAY NOT HAVE THE PROPER TORQUE) THERE WAS A PROBLEM WITH THE FRONT END AND REAR. THE WHEEL WAS REPLACED, THE FLAT TIRE WAS BALANCED AND THE BEAM WORKED OKAY. THE VEHICLE MADE NOISE WHEN RELEASED FROM PARK MODE, STOP, AND WAS INTERMITTENT. (HAS BEEN ADJUST 3-4 TIMES BUT WOULD GO BACK TO THE SAME THING) *SCC *JB
