i feel like the rear of my car is stretching when i give it alot of throttle. It happens in 1st to second to 3rd. If anyone has experienced similar issues id greatly appreciate ur input. ive heard it could be diff mounts going bad, or sub frame bushings. If it is is it expensive, and a bitch to do? do they provide aluminum components

Not really understanding what you mean by "stretching." You feel like something is loose and is shaking? Any strange noises from the rear?

You have an 08 I would hope that none of the things you have listed are bad that early in its life. Plus you should have the warranty so can't you take it to the dealership and have it looked at?

When it stretches, how much longer does it get? Or does it get wider instead of longer? Or both?

B serious

I think if someone came into my shop and said their car was stretching when they accelerated, I'd ask if they needed some pills or something.

What does that even mean?!!

You're under warranty, right?

I assumed that he was refering to the car hesitating a bit before moving forward, creating almost a "soft" type feeling. If it is between shifts then it could be the CDV, slipping the clutch, that you are feeling

Stretching, that's weird. I bet you're thinking something is loose. Probably just spinning the wheels a bit?

Does your stretching feel like this...?

I don't think its physically possible to "stretch" a car just by accelerating can you? If you accelerate hard then you would just roll forward. Anyways, if you suspect its your subframe or diff bushings, why not just check them out. Or like other people said just go to the dealership since you should have warranty.
