The strut on the driver side rear rattles. It rubs when I make right turns. I have only changed the struts in the rear and a wheel bearing on the driver side rear and it is still doing it.

I had a slow speed accident in my 1998 plymouth neon. I was in a parking lot and only going 5 MPH. The other car hit my left front fender. My strut is broken & various other parts of the suspension, including the axel. I can't understand how this could happen in a slow speed accident. I see there is a rear suspension defect and am wondering about the front.

Vehicle makes a popping noise going around corners. Automatic transmission allows driver to shift without applying brakes (no/defective interlock). Problems have been ongoing since original purchase. 1 previous repair attempt did not resolve popping noise, dealer did not address the shift interlock problem.
