I HAVE A 2002 CHEVY IMPALA. I HAVE SO MANY PROBLEMS WITH IS CAR SINCE THE MOMENT I DROVE IT OFF THE LOT. IN MY OPINION, THE WHOLE CAR SHOULD BE RECALLED. BUT, I AM ONLY GOING TO FILE A COMPLAINT ON MY CURRENT ISSUE. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED TO MY CAR. ABOUT A YEAR AGO, I STARTING HEARING A ROARING SOUND COMING FROM THE FRONT OF MY CAR WHEN I DROVE DOWN THE ROAD. IT WAS REALLY STRANGE BECAUSE IT SOUNDED LIKE THE ENGINE, BUT THE NOISE WAS NOT CAUSE FROM PUSHING THE GAS, JUST THE TIRES DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. I TOOK IT TO A LOCAL AUTOMOTIVE CENTER. THEY INFORMED ME THAT IT WAS THE HUB BEARING LOCATED NEAR MY TIRE. THEY TOLD ME IT WAS SO BAD THAT MY TIRE WOULD HAVE FALLEN OFF WHILE DRIVING, WHICH COULD HAVE A CAUSED AN ACCIDENT....

A STATE INSPECTION @30,000 MILES REVEALED A BAD UPPER CONTROL ARM, LEFT AND RIGHT INNER TIE ROD ENDS AND BOTH MOTOR MOUNTS. MY MECHANIC FEELS AS THOUGH THESE PART FAILURES ARE VERY PREMATURE AND WERE CAUSED BY A VERY LOOSE STEERING RACK . HE TOLD ME THAT I SHOULD CONTACT SOMEONE TO SEE IF THERE IS A REPAIR BULLETIN FOR THIS PROBLEM. I DON'T THINK A CAR SHOULD NEED THAT KIND OF FRONT END WORK A 30,000 MILES . I'M ALSO CONCERNED THAT MY WIFE ,WHO DRIVES THE CAR ON A DAILY BASIS, IS AT RISK WHILE DRIVING HERSELF AND OUR 2 KIDS TO AND FROM THEIR DAILY ROUTINES. PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF ANYTHING CAN BE DONE TO CORRECT THIS PROBLEM AS SOON AS POSSIBLE!! THANK YOU!! *NM
