Consumer Description

LESS THAN 30 DAYS OF TAKING POSSESSION OF THE VEHICLE BRAND NEW, WE NOTED A WHINE WHEN YOU TURNED THE STEERING WHEEL. WE BROUGHT THE VEH IN TO DEALERSHP AND IT WAS REPORTED THE AIRBAG COIL WAS WRAPPED AROUND STEERING COLUMN CAUSING THE NOISE. THE COIL WAS REPLACED AND VEH RETURNED TO ME. WITHIN 24 HOURS THE NOISE RETURNED. THIS TIME THEY DETERMINED IT WAS THE FRONT LEFT STRUT AND REPLACED. A BRAND NEW VEHICLE SHOULD NOT NEED A NEW STRUT. DEALERSHIP SAID THEY HAD ANOTHER ACADIA IN FOR SAME PROBLEM
