“The car rides smooth on good roads but on rough roads it sounds like everything is falling off underneath of the car. I have had the bushings replaced and tie rods replaced. The front end shop and my mechanic have both tried to find what was making all the noise and banging and they cannot find anything that is loose when it is on the lift. I love the car but the noises are irritating and embarrassing to those that ride with me. Could not get the approx. Date to work, it been going on for several years help!!”
