Which part do you call the isolator ? Top or bottom ?
I'm guessing bottom.
When they do wear. Is it the material that there made of that is the problem ?

The bottom is rubber, and it does wear out. Check out the diagram above. It has all parts labeled.
Actually, they are a hard plastic. The top or jounce bumper has an extra foam type ring that the spring seats against. That foam ring (white part in the picture) is what I consider to be the isolater.
Be Sure to match the Jouncer to the proper spring.
Example.... If you are using rear Cobalt SS replacement Springs # 10390024 to lower the HHR, they use a different upper Jouncer with a shorter bumper.
I just put these on the rear of my 2LT and they make the HHR look much better.
It is the softer SS spring version and am completely satisfied. Approx. 1-1/2" drop.
I also added a TTR rear sway bar and that finished stabilizing the rear.
