I have 4k miles on my truck , bought it in December .. I have issues with the front end, seems like I feel every crack in the road, front end is all over the place if I hit a fairly small sized bump / pot hole or sewer cover that is not quite level. I asked the dealer at first oil change and they said nothing wrong with front end .. Anyone else having this problem , how to get the dealer to fix this, or what to ask them to look for ???

DVD player for the kids when pulled down for the kids to view is a rattle box, it drives me nuts.. I have to see what the dealer can do , looking for suggestions or if anyone else had this problem. Thanks

I experience both these problems on my 06.

I don't know if there is much you can do about the front end problem, but I am thinking about picking up some Dynamat for the DVD player to try and stop the rattling. I also found the lid to the storage on the "trunk floor" is a pretty bad rattler too.

Hope this is of some help,Jonny

I was having the same issue. I took it to the dealership and they said there was a clip that was loose above the middle center piece. They had to order a whole new piece.

I wouls also like to know if it hellped . I called my dealer today , I am going in on Friday . Having them look at the front end, when I explained it to him , he said we hear this from many owners of the QX. Handling is the same on the 09 and 2010 mdels he said ..

Also going to have them look at the DVD player, when in the down position this thing rattles so much , I rode the back seat once and the DVD screen was bouncing all over the place... I have to see what they can do to fix that also ...
