problem #1

Golf 4-cyl

  • Manual transmission
  • 200 miles
The car has had squeaking and creaking front doors since two weeks after delivery. The dealer has tried several times to lubricate, adjust the door and striker. The problem has never been solved. It can be heard whenever the car accelerates, decelerates, or changes direction. It also has buzzes, creaks, squeaks, and rattles in the dash. The problem is growing worse and no one knows how to solve it. This car has been doing this since it was two weeks old. It only has 30,000 miles on it at present.
