Suspension Noise problems of the 2010 Cadillac SRX

The front suspension was making a lot of loud noise, especially when driving over any bumps. I took it to the local Cadillac dealership and was told there are no lubrication fitting on the front suspension of the 2010 Srx and it had seriously worn out tie rod ends and control arm and they needed to be replaced immediately.

I just brought this SUV sept. 2014. Last week I was going around a curve. The rear end swerved and the tires rolled over the curve. The air bags deployed and the car stopped, the car was towed to a Cadillac dealer. ( weeks before I found out about the recall on the air bags, seat, suspension and seat belt. ) so, when I told the adjustor about the recall he just brushed it off and said," it's not the recall. ". I don't think the adjustor worked for an outside company. I need to get my car independently checked so I can find out if it was the recall items. How could my air bags deploy from going over the curve? the car has no damage. . . None! I think the dealer does not want to fix the recalled items or they fixed them wrong. Because my driver seat was making some crazy sounds the weeks before the airs bags came out. Plus, I told the dealer and he said all the work was done to the car. I think their lying. . . . Is there a government place I can have the car checked or can you send someone? can you please help me? thank you for your time.

Passenger side head light has ongoing electrical short goes out indicates on the information center then will randomly come back on took it in to the dealer no fix. Also when turning to the left or the right there is squeaking noise from the tires and suspension it gets worse when cold out. To pay 55,000. 00 for a car and have ongoing issues. It also got new head gaskets at 51,000 miles and a new transmission at 43,000 because it wouldn't go in to reverse one afternoon. Had to be towed to a dealer was replaced under warranty.

I purchased the car new, but the front suspension has been a problem from the beginning. Squeaks, rattles, vibrations and thumping prevailed from the beginning the dealer replaced a strut after 10k, then steering and then bushings. However, all the symptoms above remained. At lower speeds, the vibrations worsened, as did the moaning, the rattling, etcetera. Otherwise, the car as a whole has been reliable, including engine and brakes. I performed all scheduled maintenance religiously, I drive gently and mostly highway. A new dealer opened closer to home, and I began going to them. Last December, I asked them to repair the front end, after years of enduring a lousy ride. The vehicle now had 80,000 miles. After 3 days, and $1700, the dealership seemed to have fixed the issues, with new struts, bushings and steering coil. However, within 3 months, all the original defects reemerged. In fact, the vibrations worsened, with a feeling that the entire suspension was loose from the chassis, and vibrational thumps at highway driving sound like an 18 wheeler when it drives over train tracks, with booms, as if the axle disengages from the entire mono-frame. The engine has been reliable and fine, I like the interior and exterior looks. However, I strongly believe the front suspension is a fundamental design flaw and has robbed me from enjoying any moment in this vehicle. Finally, I am getting more concerned about the safety of the front end. If the dealership can't improve it, when I schedule my service in two weeks, I will sell my car in despair, but I'm deeply disappointed in the performance of this vehicle, the awful ride quality, and chronic symptoms which no car should ever display. I sincerely hope you consider this problem in this vehicle. Thanks.
