problem #2

Sep 152005

Neon 4-cyl

  • Manual transmission
  • 19,000 miles
The car started to make scraping and squeaking noises while going over bumps and dips. I inspected the front suspension and had found that the rear bushings on both front lower control arms separated from the control arms. The passengers side control arm had failed and was touching the sub frame, the drivers side was close to failing. Both bushings were replaced by the dealer under warranty.

problem #1

Neon 4-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 7,844 miles
The bushings on both front lower control arms separated from the control arms. The left side control arm was touching the sub frame, and the right side was almost there. Both bushings had come out. The dealer said there was nothing wrong. The dealer said to have Chrysler look at it too.
