Smile PTC problems.

Thank you for the welcome. Mech. we did not have any problems. We traded it in with 24K miles. We were not happy with the noise factors and seal problems.
In this area, Mo. we have a lot of windy days and even when it was not windy we always had that pesty wistling sound. When they closed Highway 160 to work on a bridge, I had to take a detour and use dirt roads for 3 mths. My God what a mess. We had that fine dust all over the inside the car. When you would open the door, there was about an 1/8 of an inch of that crap, all around and it would fall on you when you would get in.
Well that did it.
Driving the HHR is a pleasure to drive, its quiet, smooth & comfy.
Now my Wife and I, fight (kind of), who will be driving the car. Its a pleasure to see her drive, she's got that certain smile that tells me she is content, happy and relaxed.

Take care and have a good week-end

After we took a ride in it, (superb ride, handling, etc.), we bought it and drove it off the show room. We got many thumbs up, on our way home.
We are proud to be an HHR MEMBER.
Thank you so much for the hardy welcome. Proud pictures will be posted soon.
