why is my car whining?
I have a 2009 Chevy Traverse. my emissions light came on. I took it to the dealer who said it was a "timing" code and they had to replace timing chains, etc. When I got the car back,it was whining, it sounded like a whined up car. They said it was probably air in the P/S line. I drove it for a couple weeks with no improvement and took it back. they said now "your P/S pump needs replaced. Probably just a "coincedence." They replaced my P/S pump and the noise is better but still there. now, we have gotten an email that my water pump has been recalled. could this be the issue? I am very frustrated. the noise did not exist prior to me taking the car to the garage.

Re: why is my car whining?
This a GM shop?
They said it was probably air in the P/S line. If air in the PS line, then they should have removed the air, and if not possible, they should have told you, you have a leak.... Noise still there? The it goes back to the shop and complain...they don't do anything about it, then you call GM Customer Assistance.... They replaced my P/S pump and the noise is better but still there. now, we have gotten an email that my water pump has been recalled. could this be the issue? I am very frustrated. the noise did not exist prior to me taking the car to the garage. Well, get the w/p replaced....if your noise is now gone, then complain about unnecessary replacement of PS pump.... By the way, was this warranty work or out of pocket expenses? |
