Typical suspension symptoms owners report

  • Owners report the CV boot on a front wheel splitting or detaching within days of purchase, spilling axle grease onto the wheel, axle, brake caliper, and shocks.
  • Several owners describe this CV boot failure occurring at very low mileage, in some cases under 1,000 miles, on vehicles with March and April build dates.
  • Owners describe the original-equipment tires losing grip on wet or snowy roads even with modest mileage on them, leading to loss of control.
  • Some owners report the suspension dropping to its lowest point and staying there, accompanied by unusual engine noise.
  • Owners report the front control arm or CV joint snapping while braking, causing loss of steering control and tire separation.
