Default Re: CV shaft after hub and bearing replacement?

You need to find a new dealer. What happened was whoever changed the hub pulled on the knuckle with the lower balljoint separated which pulled the c.v. joint out of the cup. this makes for a longer axle. Whoever then jammed the axle back in place with the joint still separated. While jamming, probably bent the wheel and jammed the other end of the axle into the trans output bushing. Then your dealer/ service writer covered their own butt on the trans and axle with the vehicle warranty. Remember that $100 deductible? No warranty claim, you pay no deductible, the dealer should have paid for their tech's mistake, not Chrysler with a bogus warranty claim. Please find someone else to work on your car, you can't afford to trust these guys and neither can Chrysler !!
