Consumer Description

THERE WAS A CLUNCKING SOUND EVERY TIME I TURN THE WHEEL TO THE LEFT OR THE RIGHT. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALER ON TWO OCCASIONS FOR REPAIR, AND THEY REPLACED THE STEERING COLUMN BOTH TIMES, THE CAR STILL CLUNCKED. .THE DEALER SAID THE CLUNCKING SOUND WAS OKAY AND NOT TO BRING IT BACK.THE RIGHT WHEEL BEARING WAS REPLACED, AND NOW THE GAS GAUGE DID NOT WORK. ALSO, I WAS TOLD WHEN THE GAS GAUGE FAILED IT WA S AN EARLY WARNING THAT THE FUEL PUMP WILL SOON NEED TO BE REPLACED. *AK
