Car has 49,700miles. Front drivers side makes terrible rattling noise when driving over any uneven pavement or bumps. Took it to the dealer to determine the issue. They said the entire strut assembly needs replacing. No warning lamps have ever come on related to this issue. I have no idea if the car is safe to drive. There is a national back order on the parts. The dealer wants $1344 to replace it. This is crazy to me. I've driven cars with LOTS more miles than this and have never needed a strut replaced.

Ascent

  • miles
Both front struts have failed within 55000 miles, the passenger one had a failure at 43,000 miles and the driver side has failed at 54000 miles. The dealership stated that the struts had "corrosion" and were not damaged. The strut failures cause the car to shake when hitting even a small bump. There were no warning lamps or messages.
