Bought 2000 chevy Cavalier from bay point towing in concord on 4/8/06 after one week of driving vehicle the front started to make a clunking noise and the front wheel just locked up make it hard to steer. I took the vehicle to two different repair shops and both declined working on the vehicle due to too many parts missing from underneath the car in the front suspension. One mechanic stated that I was very lucky I did not get into an accident when driving on the freeway.

4 Suspension Noise problem of the 1997 Chevrolet Cavalier

When driving on any sort of bumpy road there is a constant 'squeak, rusty sound' in the front suspension. It sounds like a old squeaky bed. Also with backing up a loud long squeak comes from the front end supspension. I've had the front brakes changed and pads replaced twice (due to mechanics negligence). At this same time I complained about the noise and they checked it out and found no problems, but the noise is still there. It's a very annoying sound especially when driving, you think everyone around can hear it and also it sounds as if something is going to fall apart from the front end (?) suspension!.
