Well your car is still under GM warranty... If you have a problem that your local repair guy has suggested to you, take it to the dealership nearest to you and ask them to check it.. If will not cost you anything, providing that the vehicle has not been in a wreck and damage done has not been to customer neglect...If you have owned this car since new, then take it back to dealership...have it check, for free, and If they find nothing wrong.. then take the paperwork to shop that told you that you need this repair, and tell him to KYA...for being a rip off. and have nothing else to do with shop...

Your rotors are tousled if it happens once you brake, if it happens once you at the instant are not using the brakes, your stability is off, you have a tendency rim, or a tendency tie rod. it could additionally be that your motor vehicle is a Pontiac, meaning it grew to become into poorly made interior the 1st place. answer: get a motor vehicle that may no longer made via GM or Chrysler

could very well be a sway arm link that has broke it is very common for these to break and the driver feels no problem with the car however the shop should have brought you out and showed the broken link to you.

Get a second opinion, its almost brand new so of course you can get that work done for free, but i would make sure that the work actually needs to be done.

With only this many miles on it there shouldn't be anything wrong with your front end.I'd get a second opinion.
