I BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE AND PUT $423 INTO THE FRONT END REPLACING ROTORS, BRAKES, WHEEL BEARINGS, HUB ASSEMBLY AND CONTROL ARM BUSHINGS ONLY TO TAKE IT TO A GARAGE TO FIND OUT WHY IT WAS STILL IMPOSSIBLE TO DRIVE SAFELY. I WAS TOLD BY TWO DIFFERENT GARAGES THAT IT ISN'T SAFE TO DRIVE BECAUSE THE STRUTS AND WHOLE FRONT END IS DAMAGED BEYOND REPAIR THAT WOULD COST MORE THAN THE VEHICLE IS WORTH. ALSO THE CAR DEALERSHIP HAS REMOVED THE AIRBAGS AND NOW MADE IT NONSTICKERABLE. YOU CAN'T DRIVE IT WITHOUT THE VEHICLE FEELING LIKE THE FRONT END IS GONNA FALL OUT AND IS UNABLE TO CONTROL THE STEERING.
