Hello,
My wife and I just traded in my trusted Honda Element for a 09 cr/b MCCS R55 which I feel is a kick to drive and own. The car was purchased in Hooksett NH and the dealer is treating us right so far. What I mean by that is the car has 87,000 miles on it, but ran like a bear and was "tight" and seemed really cared for.
After the three hr drive home and three commute trips it started to have a rattle when first started. Noe the rattle has gotten worse and you can still hear it when the car is warmed up. The dealer has had me drive it to a local shop to see what's up.
I purchased an extended warranty and it's still under the dealers coverage. They seem to be taking care of us. What worries me is I never had a issue with the Honda, and it had 122,000 when I traded it in. Is this fun little car going to be a money pit?
