Beetle

  • 140 miles
My car- 1999 VW Beetle was not fully inspected before I got the car from dealer. I just found out that my car has long list of parts need replacement to repair and I felt that it wasn't real safe because of strut shock and power steering also cv joints are getting bad in the under of hood. I found out that my car has no panel skid for prevent from wetting on motor parts and got bad acid on it. I has to order the parts for my car and hasn't driven for almost 6 months by so far. By right I don't have much money to pay for repairs.

Strut bar has disconnected from vehicle causing a "scrubbing" noise. Dealership examined vehicle, and found the source of the noise. Please provide any additional information/attachments.
