2009 Hyundai Accent Suspension Problems

I WAS INTERESTED IN THIS CAR BUT BEFORE PURCHASING I TOOK IT TO FIRESTONE FOR A PRE-PURCHASE INSPECTION. ONE OF THE REPAIRS NEEDED WAS A CV AXLE. IT WAS POPPING WHEN YOU MAKE TURNS AND VISIBLY LEAKING GREASE. THE DEALERSHIP REFUSED TO MAKE ANY REPAIRS WITHOUT DRASTICALLY INCREASING THE PRICE. ESSENTIALLY, THEY WOULD MAKE MORE MONEY SELLING THIS UNSAFE VEHICLE TO AN UNSUSPECTING BUYER. IF A CV AXLE FAILS WHEN A PERSON IS DRIVING, IT WOULD MEAN COMPLETE LOSS OF THE VEHICLE AND THEREFORE OBVIOUS CONSEQUENCES. I UNDERSTAND A USED CAR NEEDING MAINTENANCE, HOWEVER THIS IS COMPLETE NEGLIGENCE THAT COULD RESULT IS SOMEONE LOSING THEIR LIFE. PLEASE INVESTIGATE EARNESTLY, I'M GUESSING THIS ISN'T THE FIRST NOR THE LAST TIME THIS WILL HAPPEN AT THIS DEALERSHIP. YOU CAN SEE WHICH DEALERSHIP I'M REFERRING TO BY LOOKING AT THE OWNERSHIP RECORD AND THE DATE OF INCIDENT, OR BY CONTACTING ME DIRECTLY.

HAVE HAD VEHICLE SEVERAL TIMES TO DEALER SHIP SINCE WE BOUGHT USED VEHICLE FOR SWAY BARS COMING LOOSE THIS SEEMS TO BE A ISSUE THAT THEY JUST CANT GET RESOLVED . THE LAST TIME I WAS DRIVING VEHICLE OUT OF NO WHERE IT STARTED MAKING THE THUMPING NOISE IT STARTLED ME I WAS PULLING OVER TO CHECK MY STEERING I WAS ALMOST REAR ENDED PULLING OFF HIGHWAY. READING SOME INTERNET SITES THIS SEEMS TO BE A PROBLEM WITH THIS VEHICLE. *TR
