I hear a rattling sound from the front end when entering a bumpy driveway or uneven pavement. The car was checked by a certified mechanic and apparently it was the bushings in the suspension that needed to be lubed. I was told to wait 24 hrs before I noticed anything. Well it's been 48hrs and the sound is still there. What could it be?

Thanks! The car is under warranty and I will have to take it back but now it's costing me my time. I like to go in knowing as much as I can about my car so as not to ripped off, being a girl, it's a fact.

You were right. They replaced both sides and I now have my car back in great shape. Thanks!
