I go to Herb Connolly in Framingham. They are a great dealership. I wouldn't be caught dead at Diamond. They are just as bad as the old Duddie Ford that was in Westborough (Same owner).

Dealer to check noise

Taking my car in on Friday to have the front end looked at. There is a noise when driving slowly over rougher surfaces. A rattle that seems to come from the top of the left front strut mount. That's my opinion...but I hope they look at the steering column and the torsion bar mounts too.

fixed !!

folks - had this noise in the front at low speeds - sounds like the fron end was falling apart driving around town - on the highway was fine - nothing goofy in the steering or control.
dealer replaced both front sway bars (thank god for that extended warranty i bought !!) and all is good - no noise , no rattling , no problems

fixeds as well - but only temporary

I had the exact same issue with the front end rattle, the dealer replaced both front sway bars and it was fixed. However, it's been about 6 months since then and the rattle has come back... I question the quality of those GM parts.

There's only one sway bar in the front. Do you mean that the dealer replaced that? Or are you talking aobut sway bar bushings maybe? Or stabilizer links????

I've had this same noise since day one and have had the sway bar bushings replaced as well as the links and its still there.
