problem #1

Mar 152005

Rio 4-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 69,400 miles
Wheel came apart while driving down the highway at 55 pmh. There was a noise before the wheel came. The car was repaired by the owner replacing the entire hub assembly on the front driver side. Now the other side is making a clicking noise and may need to be replaced.
