squeaks?

dumb question but are you guys picking up a lot of squeaks early in your cobalt. i dont have a bad problem but sometimes when i hit a bump like a small one on the interstate ill hear a squeak. this didnt occur till i put in my strut bar support. is this common? what is squeaking and whats the fix?

oh and its an 07 and i only have 8 thousand miles on it!!

thanks

A major source of squeaks is the latch where the rear seats lock in, you can see them when you fold the rear seats down. GM has a TSB out on it, they should fix it for free, get them to look it up.
Otherwise our cars do squeak and rattle a lil bit, it's what you get when you buy an economy car for under 30k, unfortunatley. Dynamat ftw!
