Noisy Front End

[Step Up]

Howdy,

Anybody have front end noise? About a month ago (9k miles) the something started squeaking (sounds like the front end) right after I startup and pull away. Now it's more prevalent but it only happens up to about 20mph and it occurs on flat ground. I think it's a suspension thing but I have no way of knowing. The service guy said they didn't know.

I didn't hit anything and I've never been over 85mph (too much vibration at that speed). Man I'm getting tired of Nissan and all the darned noise gremlins, crooked bumper gremlins, squaky sunroof gremlins...you get the idea.

the squeeking and vibration should be checked out by your dealer, im almost 100% sure you need an alignment

I had the same noise it was a schunching sound at 20 mph almost sounded like a bad cord in one of the tires. The dealer could not figure it out. They had to get in touch with Nissan who suggested they replace the front diff. Which they did so far so good.

I'm going take it back and insist they do something about it. The queal sounds like metal is rubbing metal somewhere.... <sigh>
