Thread: Issues so far...

  1. #1

    Exclamation Issues so far...

    What kind of issues you have had with your XV... ? Although the ride quality
    is excellent I find my XV's issues quote annoying as it's brand new car... i.e.

    - squeaking sets (imagine driving on a silent night and every bump causes
    ee-ee, ee-ee, ee-ee sound)

    - rattling noise from plastic panels (both front doors, dashboard, speakers,
    center cupholders... almost sounding like the plastic parts are not tightly
    attached to chassis and are vibrating against metal).

    OMG! That would be really annoying! Which country are you from and do you have excessively bumpy roads?
    I would be taking it straight back to the dealer for a fix😁

    I get rattles in the dashboard, but only on certain roads, unfortunately it's the road to go to work on plus side it doesn't happen the whole way

    They just don't build em' like they use to eh. it was one of the reasons i didn't take a loan to buy a MY13 Liberty. after being in the MY08 they just don't even come close. everything is cheap feeling. same thing happened to Honda after the 90's. profit profit profit.

    I did have some minor rattles in the dash and front pillar, but my dealership fixed it as soon as I told them about it.

    I haven't had any other sort of rattles like some of you have had...that would be so annoying!!

    I read somewhere that sometimes the head rests can rattle when they are not pushed all the way down.... you might want to check that out. Its an easy fix, especially if its the passengers side that rattles. Good luck.

    I must be one lucky bastard. My Impreza don't rattle, my XV don't rattle. Thank you Motor Image!
