    Convential Oil, who uses what?

    Don't know if this has been posted yet but it is very interesting and will probably make you reconsider your oil filter choice. I know I'm switching! http://people.msoe.edu/~yoderw/oilfilterstudy/oilfilterstudy.html

    Rear brake noise, heat, smoke?

    Haddad's lawyers sent a "release form" to my mother consisting of 2 pages of wording that leaves them not responsible for any work they performed on her Liberty. There is also a section that requests that she refrain from any negative correspondence with others. Give me a break! I told her to...

    Rear brake noise, heat, smoke?

    I'm usually polite enough to leave at least a foot, no really, I leave plenty of room. It's funny though, while backing into a spot for lunch this fall a guy, that had just parked his pick-up, dramatically jumped out of my way then claimed I nearly clipped him. I told him to calm down 'cause...

    Rear brake noise, heat, smoke?

    I drive a tri-axle dump truck for a living that weighs almost 15 tons, (30,000 lbs), empty, you should see me get that thing into the Starbucks parking spaces. #-o

    Rear brake noise, heat, smoke?

    smart move for International, you can spend close to $50k on a one ton crew from the Big Three so why not get a real truck with a GVW of 25,999lbs or better. Could be a problem parking it in the garage....

    Rear brake noise, heat, smoke?

    yes, the caliper may not be 100% so you may want to point this out to the dealer, can't hurt to change it, it's a warranty item, not a wear item.

    Rear brake noise, heat, smoke?

    My mother phoned me yesterday to say she had received the checks via us mail. Three checks: one for the refund of the bogus brake repair where they missed the seized caliper, one for the refund of the prorated Extended Service Plan, and one for the balance of the entire Extended Service Plan...

    Rear brake noise, heat, smoke?

    No, it wasn't a no-show. My mother spoke with the Gen. Man. on Monday and he said by the end of the day the lawyers would call with an appt. Never happened. The owner also told me on Saturday that the meeting was scheduled for Monday. At least they are consistant with their lies.

    Rear brake noise, heat, smoke?

    Well, there aren't many dealerships around here and people are too lazy to drive an hour to a decent one. They are also located in a town that has a lot of wealthy residents that don't have to worry about the cost of their cars or the maintenance.

    Rear brake noise, heat, smoke?

    Oh yeah, forgot a juicy little detail. When I was on the phone this am with my mother while watching my sons learn to snowboard I noticed a woman in front of me turn her head to look at me. I assumed she was interested in the conversation so when I hung up I advised her not to do business with...

    Rear brake noise, heat, smoke?

    Yesterday I called the Gen. Man. at Haddad and left him a v/m to call my mother with the correct number for the DSM, not another wrong number. I sent a letter to the BBB. I called the Sales Manager who said the matter was above his head and to continue dealing with the owner directly. I got...

    Rear brake noise, heat, smoke?

    Hi guys, my Mother has not yet received that check, playing phone tag with owner. He could just mail it with a copy of the canceled contract but that would be too simple. I have been calling the dealership and e-mailing them almost daily. I am trying to get the phone number for the District...

    suspension and rear end noises

    If possible try jacking the rear axle up and set on jack stands with tires off the ground. Make sure you are in 2WD and try to duplicate the noise by simulating the same driving situation at which it occurs while some one outside the vehicle locates the source of the noise. On a flat surface...
