Consumer Description

THIS VEHICLE HAS MODERATE VIBRATION AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. THE DEALER HAS DONE THE FOLLOWING TO TRY AND ELIMINATE THE PROBLEM: 1). BALANCED ALL 4 TIRES - 14OCT04. 2). ADJUSTED THE STEERING RACK, AND BALANCED 4 TIRES - 18OCT04. 3). REPLACED FRONT TIRES, AND BALANCED - 25OCT04 (AM). 4). REPLACED REAR TIRES, AND BALANCED - 25OCT04 (PM). THE DEALER'S SERVICE MANAGER RODE WITH ME (DURING THE TEST DRIVE) FOLLOWING EACH OF THESE EVENTS, AND THE VIBRATION STILL EXISTS. ALSO, THE EXTERIOR FINISH HAS A ROUGH FEEL TO IT. IT APPEARS THAT THIS VEHICLE WAS IN AN AREA WHERE CLEAR COATING AS BEING APPLIED (TO A DIFFERENT VEHICLE), AND WAS NOT PROPERLY PROTECTED. VISUALLY, ONE CANNOT TELL. TOUCHING THE VEHICLE, THE EXTERIOR SURFACES ARE NOT SMOOTH TO THE TOUCH.*AK
