TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 CHEVROLET KODIAK 4500. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 55 MPH, THE FRONT AXLE SHAKES AND CAUSES THE PASSENGER SIDE TIRE TO WEAR FASTER. THE FAILURE OCCURS INTERMITTENTLY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER, BUT WAS NOT SERVICED. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 18,000 AND FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 1,000. UPDATED 4/25/08 *CN
IN REFERENCE TO COMPLAINT #10217562, THIS IS AN ADDENDUM. THE VEHICLE HAS SINCE BEEN TO AN ALIGNMENT FACILITY, AND IT HAS BEEN DETERMINED THAT THE STEERING WHEEL WAS REPOSITIONED APPROXIMATELY 50 DEGREES OFF CENTER BY THE END MANUFACTURER---MONROE TRUCK EQUIPMENT. THIS DEVIATION FROM CENTER WAS SUBSEQUENTLY REPORTED BY US TO AN ENGINEER AT ZF LINKSYSTEM (THE MANUFACTURER OF THE STEERING GEAR), AND THEIR OPINION WAS THAT THE STEERING GEAR WAS NOT AT ITS OPTIMAL POSITION--THIS ADVERSELY AFFECTS STEERING "PLAY" AND THE RANGE OF STEERING LEFT OR RIGHT. UPON TESTING THE VEHICLE, IT WAS EVIDENT THAT THERE IS 1/2 GREATER TURN CAPABILITY TO THE LEFT, COMPARED TO THE RIGHT. (THERE WERE 2.5 TURNS
I OWN A 2007 KODIAK PICKUP CONVERSION WITH HYDRAULIC BRAKES. AFTER A HEAVY RAIN, I NOTICED WATER COMING FROM THE AREA OF THE BRAKE ACTUATOR ROD AT THE FIREWALL. NO FAILURE HAS ENSUED, BUT I WAS UNABLE TO DETERMINE IF THIS WAS A PRIMARY BRAKE PROBLEM OR A PROBLEM WITH THE WINDSHIELD SEAL. EVENTUALLY THE CORROSION OR MOISTURE IN THE PASSENGER FOOT WELL WILL CREATE A SAFETY PROBLEM. *TR
