problem #3

Jan 012015

HHR

  • Automatic transmission
  • 66,000 miles

Any time it is cold outside the front struts on my HHR will make a terrible crunching noise whenever I go over a bump. It has done this since about six months after I bought it. I looked into replacing them but was told by a mechanic there really was no point. The replacement parts are the same P.O.S. and will do the exact same thing. Just one more problem on a long list of problems I've had with this car.
