Consumer Description

PROBLEM SEEMS TO START WITH THE TRANSMISSION CLUNKING THEN EVENTUALLY YOU WILL START TO HEAR A POPPING NOISE IN YOUR FRONT END, COMING FROM THE TIE ROD. THOUGHT THIS WAS A SUSPENSION PROBLEM BUT TOOK TO DEALER THE FIRST TIME AND THEY REPLACED MY BRAKES AND SERVICED TRANSMISSION. CLUNCKING NOISE STILL EXISTED WHEN YOU LET OFF THE GAS AND THE SLIGHTLY ACCELLERATED. TURNS OUT THE TIE ROD, TRANSMISSION MOUNT AND AXLE WERE TO BLAME. CAN'T TELL YOU ABOUT THE AXLE AS THEY TOLD ME THEY WOULD REPLACE BUT DID NOT SHOW UP ON REPAIR. I KNOW THAT THERE SEEMS TO BE SERIOUS PROBLEM WITH THE DRIVE TRAIN AND SUSPENSION IN THE CAR. AS FOR THE DIP STICK, THE HEAT CREATED BY THE ENGINE IS COOKING THE PLASTIC IN THE COLORED DIPSTICK TO THE POINT IT JUST FALLS APART. I RECENTLY HAD THE TIE ROD AND TRANSMISSION MOUNT REPLACED AND NOW HAVE A MUCH WORSE CLUNCKING NOISE THE SAME DAY OF THE REPLACEMENT...CAN I GET SOME HELP AS I FEEL THIS CAR IS A SERIOUS PROBLEM WAITING TO HAPPEN..
