Rattling in front

Hey guys - I've had a rattling problem that I thought was in the front wheels. I've had it to the shop a couple of times and they finally seemed to have fixed it. They replaced 2 parts in the steering column. The mechanic told me that they have seen this problem alot in cobalts. Anyone else had this problem?

Its so common I call it normal. The steering shafts and electric assist motor both get loose over time and thats the noise it makes. Its all just slop in between splines.

i took mine in for noise going over bumps and they had to replace a control arm bushing on the passanger side. It seemed to take care of the noise i had but about a day later it started again. Now its mainly on the driverside instead of both
