2009 Chrysler PT Cruiser Suspension Problems

FRONT CONTROL ARM BUSHINGS NEED TO BE REPLACED. CAR HAS ONLY 39,000 MILES ON IT. I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE USED AS A RENTAL RETURN WITH ONLY 389 MILES ON IT. SEEMS THAT THE BUSHINGS SHOULDN'T BE GOING OUT WITH LESS THAN 40,000 MILES ON A VEHICLE. VEHICLE HAS HAD ALL REQUIRED MAINTENANCE AND NEW TIRES - I BABY THIS CAR. ALSO, PANEL WITH CONTROLS ON LEFT SIDE OF DRIVERS SEAT HAS DETACHED. I HAVE TRIED TO REATTACH MANY TIMES WITH NO SUCCESS. I WILL NEED TO BRING TO THE DEALERSHIP TO FIX. UNFORTUNATELY BOTH OF THESE ITEMS HAPPENED JUST AFTER MY 36/36 WARRANTY WAS UP AND IS NOT COVERED BY MY LIFETIME POWERTRAIN WARRANTY. HAVE BEEN QUOTED NEARLY $1000 TO FIX BOTH. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 CHRYSLER PT CRUISER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE EXHIBITED A LOUD NOISE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER. THE TECHNICIAN DIAGNOSED THAT THE FRONT DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE WHEEL BEARINGS AND HUBS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE DEALER AND THE TECHNICIAN VERIFIED THAT THE WHEEL BEARING AND HUBS WERE DEFECTIVE ONCE AGAIN. IN ADDITION, THE CONTACT STATED THAT SHE HAD TO REPLACE THE BATTERY ON THREE DIFFERENT OCCASIONS WITHIN A VERY SMALL TIME FRAME. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE BUT DID NOT OFFER ANY ASSISTANCE SINCE THE VEHICLE WAS NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 42,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 69,000. *TR

CONTROL ARM BUSHINGS ARE BAD. NOW THE CONTROL ARM HITS THE SUBFRAME WHILE DRIVING. THE CAR WOBBLES AT ALL SPEEDS AND PULLS TO THE RIGHT, ONLY 48,000 MILES. VERY DISAPPOINTING. *LN
