Consumer Description

PROPELLER SHAFT ASSEMBLY / DRIVE SHAFT ASSEMBLY. RESULT: DEALER REPLACED UNDER FACTORY WARRANTY IN 2018 AND NOISE NO LONGER EXISTS. PREVIOUSLY, BETWEEN 15 MPH AND 20 MPH AT CRUISE SPEED AND NO ACCELERATION, A LOUD BUFFETING/RECOILING/CUFFING NOISE IS AUDIBLE IN THE CABIN. SOUNDS AS THOUGH IT ORIGINATES UNDER THE FLOOR BOARDS. HEARD THIS FROM THE MOMENT I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE NEW WITH 15 MILES ON THE ODOMETER UNTIL I BROUGHT IT IN TO THE DEALER TWO YEARS LATER, WHICH, AS WRITTEN ABOVE, THEY DIAGNOSED THE SOURCE TO THE PROPELLER SHAFT / DRIVE SHAFT ASSEMBLY.
