Long Story Short…
March 24th, 2010
So I took the ION into a local shop to get the “clunk” that it makes when it goes over bumps at slow speed checked out. All my research pointed to it being caused by a worn lower control arm bushing.
But, not knowing how best to check to see if mine was bad, I took it in. I told them I thought it was the lower control arm bushing. they said “No, it is your strut plates.” Crap. So I had them change those out and while they were at it I told them to put in new struts.
$800 later, it still clunks. So I threw it on the jack stands and did some poking around.
I’m no suspension expert – but I’m pretty sure this isn’t supposed to happen…
