Consumer Description

WE TOOK OUR VUE IN FOR THE RECENT RECALL REQUIRING REPLACEMENT OF REAR LATERAL LINK ASSEMBLIES. WE HAD A "CLUNKING" NOISE IN THE FRONT AND WERE TOLD THE FRONT LINK ASSEMBLIES, FRONT STABILIZER SHAFT AND FRONT MOUNT ASSEMBLY AND STRUT UPPER BEARING NEEDED TO ALSO BE REPLACED. WE HAD TO PAY FOR THIS. CAR IS ONLY 2 YEARS OLD BUT HAS 48,000 MILES ON IT SO IT IS OFF WARRANTY. WE WERE TOLD THE DAMAGE WAS NOT DUE TO DRIVING (I.E. HITTING A BUMP, RAILROAD TRACK, ETC) BUT IT WAS "BECAUSE THE PARTS JUST WERE CORRODED. PROBABLY FROM ROAD SALT" BY THE SERVICE REP (JESSE SCOTT, SATURN OF GRAND RAPIDS, MI). COULD THERE BE A CONNECTION WITH THE RECALL FOR THE REAR SUSPENSION AND THE ADDITIONAL DAMAGE TO THE FRONT SUSPENSION? AGAIN, THE CAR WILL NOT EVEN BE 2 YEARS OLD UNTIL MAY, 2005.*AK
