LT Focus Ghia queries

[Riksta]

One of the girls at work is looking at an LT Ghia at the moment, took it for a spin and is a bit concerned about a couple of things, thought I would post up here and see if any of you guys know whether its common, easily fixed, expensive fix or are able to offer any advice. I'm only posting up going by what she & her partner have just told me over the phone.

First of all, at slower speeds, it seems to be pulling to the left a little (could be alignment more than anything?)

There seems to be a rattle, noticable outside the car, when turning at slower speeds coming from the front area of the car. Apparently there's no wheel shudder associated with it, but a noticible sound.

Glovebox light apparently is staying on when the glovebox is closed.

She couldn't find an AUX in, I explained where it was in my LS Zetec, did the LT have the same type of AUX in, in the glovebox? Does the 6 stacker that the Ghia has come with the AUX in?

Any ideas appreciated

I'd be wary of it being involved in an accident & being bodged up if there is rattles outside & its pulling to the left.

It may just be out of alignment but I suppose its something to be aware of.

Glovebox Light stayed on in my LV since i got it....i posted a thread here and was advised it was a common thing in these cars...i stuck one of those self adhesive velcro dots on the glovebox lid where it presses against the switch...fixed it up.


Rattle could be CV joint related perhaps?
