problem #1

Mar 262008

Montego 6-cyl

  • 1,100 miles
Loud clunking from rear suspension, replaced rear shock and tightened torsion bars etc. Noise was reduced but never fully corrected. Consequently my car is out of alignment and ruined all 4 tires in just 32,000 miles. Service center is refusing to fix under warranty. They have stated that the tires cupping on the inside has been an issue on these vehicles so is there more wrong here than they are saying. I have my car serviced there every 3,000 miles and tires rotated every 6,000 miles. I pay them to take care of my car, if I would not have noticed my tires being cupped they would have never said anything.
