Avenger SXT 2.4L

  • Automatic transmission
  • 80,778 miles

Hello i have had my avenger for almost three years now i had it to the dealer because i thought the steering rack was gone so while it was at the dealer they said there was nothing wrong with it. It has made the same noise only now its gotten worse so I've been told i cant just buy a inner tire rod end i gotta buy the whole steering rack which is a 500 dollar job plus labor. I also had a stalling problem which was a easy fix with a thirty dollar part called a leak dector pump and filter which i thought i would have to take to the dealer but you only need a screw driver to fix and its under the back bumper an easy fix. Also i have had my air bag light come on and off a few times i was told buy the dealer that sometimes when it gets wet that it could come on another problem that a 2008 model car shouldn't have.Also while pulling into a road and not letting the car slow down i hit the gas and there is a clunking noises almost sounds like the transmission didn't have time to shift and it don't sound good problem hasn't been fixed i just baby it lol. If you have any advice please feel free to let me know thanks alot
