Had the steering gear replaced under warranty back in February, now it's July and the thump is back. Was told by local GM dealership that I'd need to pay ~$100 diagnostic fee to figure out what it is, and then IF it was the steering gear I'd have to take it up with GM customer service to try and get the repair & diagnosis done for free. Before I go that route I've found TSB #060232007, we'll see if lubing the steering shaft gets me anywhere. Aggravating, to say the least
