Question about warranty work and steering clicking at low speed

36,000 miles really snuck up on me - I'm currently at 35,800. I've never had warranty work on a car, so do I just drop it off at the service department? Do they ever offer a loaner car, or is that uncommon? If not, I will need to get a rental car.


As for the warranty work:

Clutch fork needs to be lubricated. Clutch has a textured sound when being depressed.


Steering wheel emits clicking noise when turning at low (<5mph) speed. Began happening around 25k miles.


Fuel pump crickets (not sure if they ever addressed this issue).

Hey. Loaner cars depends 100% on the dealership itself so they may or may not have one. If they can replicate your issues and they are causes by a manufacture defect then they should be able to fix them no issues (if its still under 3 years) As far as crickets go there is no fix so enjoy them

Probably get a loaner, crickets can't be fixed, clicking should be covered if it can be duplicated. Clutch fork they will likely say is a wear item and you'll have to lube it yourself
