Consumer Description

DT*: THE CONSUMER STATED THE WINDSHIELD MAKES A POPPING NOISE WHEN COLD. THERE IS A NHTSA RECALL, # 03V087000, REGARDING THE WINDSHIELD. THE VEHICLE HAS THE SAME PROBLEMS AS INDICATED IN THE RECALL; HOWEVER, IT IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL DUE TO THE VIN. ALSO, WHILE PULLING OUT OF A PARKING LOT, A LOUD POP WAS HEARD. UPON INSPECTION, THE FRONT PASSENGER TIRE WAS FLAT. THE SPARE TIRE WAS PUT ON AND THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALERSHIP. THE DEALERSHIP DETERMINED THE PASSENGER SIDE COIL SPRING BROKE CAUSING THE TIRE TO GO FLAT. BOTH FRONT COIL SPRINGS WERE REPLACED. *JB
