squeaks :(

I don't own an SS but I do own a Chevy Cobalt couple ls. Everytime I go over a pothole (no, I can't avoid them--there's sooo many!) my car makes this "squeak". it sounds like it comes from the front driver's side. i had it serviced and he said it was the bushings--said that they weren't properly lubricated. he claimed to have fixed it and it is slightly better but I still hear a SQUEAK every time. it doesn't happen when i go over bumps (speed bumps, etc) just when I go into a pot hole. ;/ any suggestions? anyone else have this problem? i'm going to go over to the dealership monday but was just wondering if this was a common problem.

I don't think this is really a problem. Cars make noises like that sometimes; we can't really avoid them. Its a new car, of course, but when you go over stuff like potholes, I would expect some sort of sound.

Now, if you hear a "snap, crackle, pop" kind of sound going over these potholes, I would suggest: 1) Not going over them, and 2) Making sure something isn't broken

BTW, welcome to the site!

when in doubt take it to the dealer for that WARRANTY you do have with a new car
