  • Steering, suspension 03/20/2025

    I purchased this car in August 2024 used. In April 2025 I took it to the dealer, Mc Peek Dodge in Anaheim for clicking noises while turning either direction and Drivers front side wheel sound like its wobbly. They replaced both half axles. Again the vehicle made the same noise about a month later. I took it back in May. They replaced them again. This year in May I took it back and had it for 2 days and never looked at it. So I called Jeep customer care and they said take it elsewhere. I went to Premiere Jeep in Buena Park. They kept it for a week and replaced the left half axle again. They said the wobbly noise must be from my brake rotor and wanted to charge me $550 to resurface and reinstall the same rotor. I declined since the noise is constant and not when I'm braking. The vehicle is again making the same noise. Especially when I'm turning left. Sounds like my wheel only has one bolt attached and falling off. The clicking noise from the steering is also still present. I'm afraid...
