As I was straightening my steering wheel, from a left turn into my driveway, I heard, about half a dozen, very loud, banging noises, coming from the front of my vehicle. This was so loud, that I heard it over the noise of my audio, playing fairly loud, to begin with. This, coupled, with previous experience, and the ride on this vehicle becoming incredibly rough, leads me to believe that the ball joints are froze up. This car is less than two months old, with 2,700 miles on it. The noise out of the front, has happened before, and I went to the dealer in Denison, TX, about it, a couple of weeks ago. There was also a very strong smell of, like burning rubber, but that seemed to stop, by hitting the switch, every time, after starting the engine, to turn off the auto stop / start. These cars should not be on the road!
