I have replaced everything on my front end trying to get rid of noises, like metal hitting metal and nothing has worked. I have replaced my shocks several times and the ride is still rough. I feel that the money I have spent should be reimbursed. The car's suspension has been horrible. I have spoke with the dealer and had him repair several parts and was told by the dealer, these cars have the same suspension problems. Once they get so many miles on them they all tend to make noises no one can find. At what point does the manufacturer or the government step in an take care of all these problems, there should have been a recall issued on them at this point.
