I bought car from local dealer. Took car home , hit our country road and sounded like the front end was falling of. I took it back. He suggested to have it fixed under warranty. Took it to 2 dealers, one said no parts available until later in the year , the other put a new rack and pinion steering in .The sound stopped for 2 weeks and it stated all over. Now we have 42000 miles on the car with a big rattle. Took it back to the same dealer and he told us he was not paid by GM to look for rattles. Hear we are Anybody, that can help us please let us know how to fix it.
