i have got a few problems

1. the brakes squeal
2. some times i start my car the engine rattles for only a few sec.
3. the front struts make a thumping sound under my feet you can feel
I might start lemon law on the car .
the car only has 3245 miles on it . when i first got the car the front disks need to be replace . the car only had 100 miles on it. the last time i had my car in the shop that could not make the brakes make the noise i took the tech on a test drive . .They replaced the outside temp sencer because it went out and did not work . that had to flash the ecm and the bcm to fix the fob problem and replace my key and the fob because the fob could start 6 out of 10 cars on the dealers lot .
I love my little black betty hate to see it go if they cannot fix her
what do you all think i should do ???
thanks in advance
David

Seriously I would try another dealer for your current problems. You may get better results.

30 minutes away is a big deal? Wouldn't be to me if my dealer was doing a lousy job and I wanted another opinion.

My brakes squeal too. I had the rear drums cleaned today. They had some dust but after the cleaning, they still squeal. If they continue...back to the dealer. The car has 2437 miles on it...still new.

Are you kidding me?!

Seriously, I had to drive TWO HOURS to another GMC dealership when I had my Sonoma because the local service department was utterly incompetent.

I would doubt that you have much of a lemon law claim because none of those problems have actually rendered the vehicle unusable for an extended period of time. Take it to another dealership and see if they can troubleshoot any of those problems, although with the exception of the brakes it doesn't really sound like you're having much of any problems with the car.

Good luck, I hope it works out for you as I have never heard of anyone having good fortune with the lemon law.
