What owners wrote

Hub caps have been replaced because rattle was heard when hitting a bump. The rattle still exists and thought it could be the suspension? Windshield wiper blades don't hit the windshield properly. Most notable on the passenger side of the car. Paint also seems to be chipping in the front of the car.
