My Juke overheated a couple weeks ago. We called the insurance company because we have free towing with it, and they sent a company that showed up with a wheel lift tow truck. It never occured to me that the car is an awd and shouldnt be towed like that. To make matters worse, the car was actually in AWD mode. I am thinking the tow truck driver knew he messed up at some point during the tow because he was WAY behind me at one point, then in the neighborhood, he came flying up behind me, like 50 in a 30. He pulls up to the house, never gets out of the truck, drops it, hands me the keys through the window, and takes off pretty fast.
I finish the overheat repair today, it was a bad fan, and take it for a test drive. The noise coming from the back of the car is horrific. Only when giving it a good deal of throttle. I turned off the awd, and the noise went away. Continued on my test drive, and no other problems. Came home a half hour later, tried awd, same noise. I am going to put in a claim with the insurance company on Monday, but what repairs should I expect the car to need? I dont want to agree to certain repairs, when they wont be the total fix. Thank you.
