Q: Loud rough ride coming from the front of car.
This car has some type of front end problem. It's been thrown out that it could be either a front differential issue or something with the front bearings. Is it possible to get an estimate to fix these issues?
My car has 142000 miles.
My car has an automatic transmission.
