#708337July 7, 1999
WHEELS:LUGS/NUTS/BOLTS/STUDS
WHEN THE CAR HAD APPROXIMATELY 2000 MILES AND 12000 MILES,I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP BECAUSE OF A RATTLING NOISE IN THE FRONT OF THE CAR. THEY REPORTED THAT ONE LUG: NUT WAS SHEARED OFF AND ANOTHER TWO WERE LOOSE. THIS WAS THEIR FINDINGS FOR BOTH SERVICE CALLS. THEY HAD NO EXPLANATION OTHER THAN POSSIBLE VANDALISM. I AM CERTAIN THAT THIS WOULD NOT BE THE CASE AS THE CAR IS IN A GARGAGE AT NIGHT AND PARKED IN A SECURE AREA DURING THE DAY. I SUSPECT A SERIOUS DEFECT AND FEEL THIS COULD BE A LIFE THREATNING. *AK
