All Suspensionfront Complaints
THE VEHICLE IS PAST THE WARRANTY MILEAGE LIMITS. I NOTICED SEVERAL DAYS AGO A LOUD CLUNKING NOISE WHILE GOING OVER THE SLIGHTEST BUMP COMING FROM THE FRONT END. I HAD THE VEHICLE IN FOR A OIL CHANGE AND TIRE ROTATION AND ASKED TO HAVE THE FRONT END CHECKED. THE CONTROL ARM BUSHINGS ARE WORN OUT AND I HAVE TO PAY $300+ FOR THE REPAIR. GRANTED, I AM OUTSIDE THE MILEAGE LIMITS OF THE WARRANTY, BUT THIS VEHICLE IS BARELY THREE YEARS OLD. IT APPEARS I'M NOT THE FIRST TO COMPLAIN EITHER. I HAVE BEEN A CHEVROLET AND GM FAN FOR YEARS, BUT WITH THIS ISSUE PLUS THE PROBLEMS I HAD WITH MY LAST PICKUP, A 2004 GMC SIERRA, I'M BEGINNING TO QUESTION MY CHOICES. *TR
2008 CHEVY COBALT 60,000 MILES, LEFT AND RIGHT LOWER CONTROL ARM BUSHINGS FAILED ENABLING FRONT WHEELS TO MOVE A FEW INCHES RELATIVE TO THE FRAME. R & R CONTROL ARMS. MECHANIC SAID WHEEL WAS READY TO DETACH FROM CAR, REPLACED PARTS ARE AVAILABLE FOR INSPECTION. *TR
RECENTLY HEARD CLUNKING NOISE IN FRONT END. HAVEN'T TAKEN IT TO THE DEALER YET, BUT WILL SHORTLY. SUSPECT IT IS BUSHINGS MENTIONED IN REPORT # 10335840. THE MILEAGE IS 26100. *TR
