problem #3

Jun 192013

Sonoma 4-cyl

  • 28,000 miles
On 19 June 2013 I applied the brakes on a damp/wet road. Before coming to a complete stop I experienced a sort of hopping of the front end while going over a rough section of roadway. This sensation has occurred numerous times before and I was told it had something to do with the anti-locking brake system but nothing specific.

Consumer states oil cooler line went bad and engine has a rattle when it is cold, also the rocker arm makes a noise when it is hot. The rear differential pinion seal was bad. It was replaced, but there is still a bad growl coming from the rear end when the consumer accelerates. The left door rattled, the right upper door hinges bushings were bad, there was no grease on the front ball joints, the front actuator motor for the 4-wheel drive was replaced.

Radio goes on and off, will turn on by itself, and sometimes could smell like a burning not knowing where it is coming from. Also, headlights will blink on and off. Inside lights and radio flicker. The dealer diagnosed that there was suspension problem and the passenger side heat source was inoperable.
