TrakMotive CV Axle Shaft P/N:GM-8505
TrakMotive GM-8343 front right CV axle shaft for the 2011-2015 Chevrolet Volt carries drive torque to the wheel. The TrakMotive CV axle flexes at both joints so the wheel can steer and move with the suspension.
A clicking noise on turns, vibration when you accelerate or grease thrown from a torn boot can mean the joint is worn. Before you replace the shaft, rule out a worn wheel bearing, an unbalanced tire or a loose suspension part, since these can feel similar.
This is a direct-fit replacement for the 2011-2015 Chevrolet Volt, which takes one at the front right. The listing is one shaft; the front left is a separate part.
