dealer problem? - SRT Forums

I'v been having some issues with my car

1. Loud creaking noise when hitting small bumps from front struts.
2. Breaks noise when breaking at any speed.
3. Car starts very hard when left alone for longer then a day, idle is hard.

Took it in, and here is the verdict.

1. They replaced both front control arms
2. Breaks were fine, still have 7-8mm left on them (i had to pay $44 for them to even look at the breaks)
3. Fuel pump was bad, and also i had bad spark plug. (i had to pay for the spark plugs)

Now, days later. My car STILL has all these same problems. Not one is fixed.
Im so made about paying for the breaks and they still make so much noise its painful to hear.

What should i do? Seems like these guys dont know what they are doing. Should i go ask for my money back for the breaks and shit cause of all this crap?

Well i called them and told them about everyting. They said that i need to bring it in Thursday, and they are going to have a test in the car with me while i drive it and i can point it out to him. This way nothing gets mixed up. As far as getting money back, they said no.

A friend of mine was working on it and took the front wheels off. And there was a hole in the rubber part on the control arm that they "said" they replaced. haha. Bullshit.

More likely the ball joint boot or maybe even the LCA bushing.
