Picked it up Wednesday (yesterday) evening was told they reseated the transmission coolant line and drove around a bit. This morning when I am at highway speeds and steady on the throttle the car vibrates not a little vibration but on that you can really feel like a bouncing vibration. Throttle up or slow down it goes away.

Anyone else have this? Looks like it will be going back to the dealership after work.


Hmm torque converter maybe...

Will that wipe off? Or is your clear removed on them spots, chances are yes they did that, that wheels comes off I believe. Just take it back and tell them you noticed when you got home and want it replaced.

Adrian, since getting my car back from this recall, I have this light rattle on the front driver side, its faint but you can hear it as you start to accelerate lightly, almost like a rapid tick or even a loose screw, also I will add I have had a problem with the front driver side caliper seizing since the recall. Looking under the front of the car you can also see when they reinstalled the plastic cover near the bottom driver side wheel it is not sitting flush like the other side, so that needs to be corrected as well. I will be ordering ramps soon and take care of all this my self, I have had enough of the incompetent dealerships screwing up my vehicles. So that being said once I do get under the car if I find out what it is I will post for sure.

It doesn't wipe off. Those 3 pics are from 3 different wheels. I didn't notice anything wrong with the driver's side front wheel.

When I was on the Hwy and had to apply the brakes hard , the car pulled to the right very hard and did not have proper stopping power at all, when I got off the Hwy I could clearly see the brakes were not working on the front driver side because the rotor was not even touched by the brake pads, I got it to work after slamming on my brakes on a side road. I will try to get a pic of the plastic panel for you.

Well more then likely they caused that damage to your rims while it was in there care, could be from shop chemicals, maybe brake fluid. Take it back and tell them that the damage was not on your rims when you brought it in and it was after you picked it up, get them to replace them

Another poster in the F1fty thread put some pictures up of the service being done on their car. I don't like the look of it lol! Hopefully my inspection on Wednesday doesn't find mine needs it.
