Consumer Description

ONE WEEK AFTER OWNING VEHICLE, NOTICED LEAK SPOTS ON DRIVEWAY. AFTER RESEARCHING ON INTERNET CAR FORUMS, WAS INFORMED COMMON OCCURRENCE FOR BUILD DATES JAN-APR '06. TOOK TO DEALERSHIP TO INSPECT AND WAS TOLD DRIVER SIDE STRUT IS LEAKING. TOLD THERE IS A 2-3 MONTH WAIT DUE TO HIGH DEMAND. ON 7/29, STRUT FINALLY BLEW WHILE TRAVELING ON INTERSTATE CAUSING A JOLTING SENSATION AT HIGH SPEED. WILL TAKE TO DEALER SERVICE DEPT ON MONDAY (7/31) IN ORDER TO GET LOANER VEHICLE DUE TO THE 2-3 MONTH WAIT TOLD TO ME BY DEALER. I TRAVEL 35 MILES TO WORK ONE WAY SO THIS IS A VERY TROUBLESOME ISSUE. A RECALL ON THESE STRUTS IS WAY OVERDUE BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT OR KILLED DUE TO THESE BLOWOUTS. *JB
