So even though i thought your guys' last post was kinda rude, i'll respond one more time to set the record straight... The springy noise was the noise that i first noticed(like 2 days after i bought it). I took it to the dealership to have it looked at and they told me after 3 hours of waiting that they didnt know what it was and that it would have to get worse in order to find the problem. So i took it home and got all overstressed about it and took it back a couple days later to be looked at again. Oh, and pretty much on the ride home from the service place the first time is when i noticed the brakes noise. So now i had two issues to discuss when i brought it back the 2nd time. The mechanic rode with me that time who said he heard the "springy noise" and thought he knew what it was but that the brake noise was "normal". So he said bring it back on monday(this was a thursday) and leave it so he could isolate the noise and fix it. Well, they called the next day to say they were confident that it was fixed but when i picked it up it had the same two noises occuring and it was all late and everyone except the guy who pulls your car around was gone home so i had to call the next day to tell them it wasnt fixed. I saw on the work order that all he did was grease my axle. I dont know how he thought that was gonna solve the noise...So, the next day, they left me a message telling me to bring it back but that i should wait since the guy who has been working with my car was on vacation and that it should be scheduled when he gets... WTF!!!!!! I dont want my car taken all apart by this guy who obviously doesnt know what the noise is trying to find it. I want some kind of specialty tech to come in and figure it out, not by tinkering with everything and making more problems. So i have now spoken with the customer relations guy at the dealership who is pretty much on my side and agrees that the others jerks ive been dealing with are BSing me and he wants to presonally take care of my issues... We'll see, i take it in on monday to meet the guy,take him for a ride and to leave it to supposedly get fixed... Ive had the worst first brand new car experience so far and either this car gets fixed prefectly or im gonna have to go through the lemon law steps to get a replacement. Apparently this crap is manufacturer defects and i deserve better from a brand new car!!! So there. A whole page of me whining and crying about my car. Wish mine was perfect like yours...
