Vibrations? 05 Manual Accent GT - 6/15/2007 11:27:55 AM

Has 28k miles on it, 2nd owner (do warranties transfer?). The car has a metallic vibration when shifting into higher gears and trying to accelerate, especially when shifting into the higher gears at a lower speed (ie, to save gas). The vibration is felt in the pedals especially and the steering wheel. It can be heard slightly if you are driving the car and can feel the vibration and know when to listen for the sound. The clutch pedal has also developed a resistance, or rubbing feeling when it's close to the floor. The car feels like it's going to fall apart with only 28k. Any thoughts?

Thanks!
Chris

Yes, your warranty transfers- the 5 year (from date it was first put into service), 60,000 mile bumper-to-bumper warranty. What doesn't transfer is the warranty out beyond that- the 10 year, 100,000 mile powertrain warranty. But since you're withing the bumper-to-bumper period, that's what applies.

I don't have a stick, so I can't comment too much on your issue, but if it turns out to be clutch-related, the dealer will not cover it since the clutch, like tires and brakes, is a wear-related item. If it's something else, as long as it wasn't caused by lack of maintenance, you should be covered.

it's probably your protecting metal on your muffler before your flex and after you manifold or heathers. it could be rust around your bolt so you metal as no more support so it knocks on your muffler

I was thinking the same thing- heat shields- but when they go, you usually don't feel "vibration ... in the pedals especially and the steering wheel". It's usually just noise.
