I have a 2003 Saturn Vue v 6 fwd with automatic transmission. I had to
replace the front tires at 17000 miles because they were wearing
uneven. I noticed clunking noises in the front end and had it checked
at the dealership and they determined the strut mounts were bad and
repaced them and re aligned the wheels. Since then I have had it back
at least 3 time for the clunking noise.Each time they just retorque
them but this only seems to last a few thousand miles. I also have a
noise that sounds just like a bad cv joint when making a tight left
turn. This too has been checked by the dealer at least 3 times and the
diagnosis is always the same. They say it is a spring in the intake
and that Saturn is aware of this problem but just considers it a minor
anoyance and will not fix it at this time. Has any one else heard of
this??
It also now has developed a creaking clunking noise in the rear
which I suspect is also strut mounts.
