I took my car in today because of a popping noise. They called back and said they have to replace the ball joints and steering knuckle. All for 50.00. Anyone had these items replaced and know what the cost would have been if I were to pay out of pocket for all the problems???

I'm not sure if they used OEM or not, but the bill with labor would have been almost 1,100.00 if not for the warranty. I took a survey that saved me 10.00, so I walked with all that work for 40.00.
The car steers so much tighter now, and doesn't make any more noises or popping. Why carmax would give a warranty on a car that I bought with 96,xxx, I don't know..but as of today the warranty paid for itself. -------------------- "Somebody give me a fire...so I can burn this city down." - Widespread Panic
