It is getting progressively worse. When driving over a bump, there is a rattling/thudding noise coming from what feels like in front of the steering wheel. Feels like something is coming looser and looser.

Good afternoon.

There are many components in the suspension that may be making noise. There is ball joints, struts, sway bar bushings and link kits and lower control arm bushings.

What I suggest is to go to a shop and most will do a front end check for free. Have them write down what you need to be replaced and let us know so we can help guide you for the repair and get you some prices.
