The cv axles have gone bad on a car that is brand new after only 2 years i haven't even been driving it 2 years and i feel that it can mess up my steering and and cause me to have a wreck due to the clicking and popping and vibrations being put off by the steering and from tires even going thirty and not during a turn

I've had constant issue with my breaks squealing. after having the vehicle about 9 months the abs light would come on any time i drove across a speed bump in a parking lot, any area on a roadway that was uneven. a few months later when turning right, my left wheel continued to go to the left. at random times when turning left either from a stop or going around a curve there is a loud grinding noise or humming noise coming from underneath the carriage in the front.

Wile driving once reaching 60 miles the car will svere to the right.

When you drive with the steering wheel straight the jeep pulls to the right. so if you want to go straight you must turn the wheel to the left. was told all the patriots do this due to the transmission. if that's the case i would like this issue to be fixed cause i believe that's a scam making people believe it's a good vechile knowing there is a problem.
