    Estimated shock/strut mileage

    The wife "commandeered" the Cruiser (fully stock) last summer and I've been driving a GMC 1500 AT4. The truck is much firmer on the suspension. I drove the Cruiser again recently and it seems really squishy and wandering. Much more than I remember in the 50k of me driving it. We're...

    Transfer Case support/skid removal

    Could someone help me out? In the image below, is the bolt that is missing in the circled area required to be removed so that bracket can be removed in order to change the transfer case fluid? The reason I ask is thus: In November I took my vehicle in to the dealer to have the transfer case...

    Took my '17 into Fred Haas Toyota in Houston for a t-case oil change and engine oil change. It's the wife's car now so handed it back to her and she didn't drive it for a day after the change. She drove 65 miles rndtp to work on the 2nd day after the change and I remember thinking I smelled a...

    Windshield replacement... summary

    2017 needs a new windshield after the repair that Safelite did on the crack in the drivers side has now started reflecting more and more light making it more and more difficult to see clearly. Some questions to try and get a summary as searches had some info here and there and contradictions...

    Stock suspension greasing?

    Is there any place that needs regular greasing on the stock suspension? I'm getting a chirp on slow speed bumps and it's getting a little louder. If the greasing of my drive shaft by my dealer on maintenance intervals is any indication, it's likely they didn't touch another thing. 17 200 56k...

    Driveline/brake/suspension(??) clunk

    '17 with 51k and entirely stock. Looking for some ideas or further test. I have noticed about 60% of the time when I release the brakes from a stop I feel an additional clunk as the car settles back just prior to acceleration. This is independent of the driveshaft slack clunk that is another...

    Rotor warp and warranty

    Any luck with getting the rotors replaced prior to 36k for warping under warranty? Had the truck in about 8k ago for warped rotors and new pads. They turned the rotors and now we're back to vibes again. I'm at 35,500 miles and would like to get this taken care of before I transition to the...

    Prepaid maintenance transfer?

    I went in for my 30k mile mx today and after leaving I was looking for an unrelated document in my glove box and found a card with the pre-paid maintenance "autocare" coupons from the previous owner. I took it back into the advisor and he said he technically couldn't take it, but he would in...

    Gunner Kennels

    Does anyone have one in their 200? Looking for not only protection and management of the dog, but a better ability to store bags in around and above. They're pricey - read where someone called them the Yeti of kennels (eye roll) - but it's something I'm looking and curious if anyone has any...

    2017 value vs. 2015; value of changes with MY16

    I have been toying with moving from my '15 up to a '17, going from about 64k miles down to the upper teens or lower 20s and consolidating a commuter/airport car as well. I have been very surprised at the values of the '17s. Did I miss something in the model years (outside of the relatively...

    Wiper/Windshield Issue

    Now that we're back in the rain in Texas, a persistent wiper issue has finally made me want to permanently fix it. I had the car about a year before I switched out blades. OEM was what was on it, it did fine, but I was taking a trip and wanted new blades. Put on new OEM blades and they...

    Glovebox and area below rattle

    The piece of plastic trim that is directly below the glove box door has a rattle that is driving me bananas and looking for some help. There's a couple similar threads but there wasn't any solution so looking to see if anyone has had this recently. It's not a "rattle" per se, but the sound...

    KDSS dealer/warranty issues

    Part question/part rant: I have the KDSS lean on my '15. It was noticeable at first but wasn't terrible however it seems to have grown more in difference lately, or maybe I've just noticed it more, between the left side (1.5" lower) and the right side on the front. I took it into the dealer...

    Ventillated Seat Performance Degrade

    When I purchased my 2015 last August, the ventilated seat on the driver's side worked great. It now seems that it provides less ventilation, and thusly less cooling, than even a couple months ago. I couldn't see anything blocking the vent on the motor and was curious if anyone else has noticed...

    3rd Row Rattle

    Strange happenings with the 3rd Row recently. Passenger side seat will start to rattle when it is in the up position - I mean really clunk around going over bumps. I'll go back, unlatch it, resecure it and it's good to go. I'll drive about 50 miles, get going over some big bumps and it comes...

    Wiper Blade PSA

    I needed new wiper blades for the '15 LC, stopped by the dealer and picked up a set of OEM (supposedly) blades including the assembly. Not just the refills. I had previously read New Wipers OE vs Aftermarket and was convinced OEM was the way to go. The pics in the thread show the entire...

    Insurance Premium

    Bought the '15 Cruiser back in August of last year. Premium went up $5/mo over my '13 F-150. No big deal. April is my renewal month and the price spiked up an additional $40/mo. They're saying it's the LC. Policy is with Safeco. Check with USAA showed an additional $120/mo, State Farm...

    Alignment (and best Alignment shops in Houston)

    All, Shortly after buying my lightly used 2015, I took it in for an alignment. It wasn't necessarily "pulling" right, but if the steering wheel was centered up, it would drive left. They fixed it marginally, but not great. Of course they want to look at it again, but that's caveated with...
