tie rod ends
12/17/04
Hi,
Have a 2000 Elantra, 32,000 miles. Still under warranty. Went to local tire store which is part of a national chain to get four new tires. Asked Tech to check alignment. Tech comes back and tells me the front tie rod ends are worn and alignment cannot be checked. He tells me to go to dealer and get new tie rod ends. So I know he was not trying to sell me a $250 job because the car is still under warranty. Go home, jack up front of car and find there is some side to side play.Not sloppy but there is some play. Go to dealer and am told there is nothing wrong with tie rod ends. Go back home and jack up front of my 2002 Taurus with 68,000 miles and find no side to side play whatsoever.????????!
Any ideas?
Thanks
