| Purchased vehicle in sept 07 and started noticing a knocking noise from the front end of the vehicle at about 2000 miles. the noise would occur during slow reverse, slow forward, and turning at slow speeds at intermittent times. we have taken the vehicle to three different dealers and they have all stated that they could not hear the noise. i am currently at 21,000 miles and we still hear the noise and we can not find anyone willing to perform the proper check on the vehicle to locate the cause. *tr | |||
