2007 KIA SEDONA Steering Problems

A YEAR AGO I DO RECEIVE A RECALL LETTER NOTIFYING FOR RUSTY LOWER ARMS WHEELS TO BE REPLACED BUT SUCH THING NEVER HAPPENED. THE DEALER JUST APPLY MORE RUST INHIBITORS BUT PROCEDURES WAS NOT THE APPROPRIATE CURE FOR THE PROBLEM. WHEN THE VEHICLE IS ON MOTION A VERY DISTURBING NOISE CAME JUST UNDER THE WHEELS. SEE PICTURES THEY ARE MORE SELF EXPLANATORY JUST THE DRIVER SIDE IT'S SHOWN DUE TO FILE LIMITATION.
