Well, I took the Equinox back to the dealer after almost 2 months of waiting on parts they ordered on Dec 7th, 2005... I took it in yesterday morning to get the noise in the front end corrected... Now, I should say that in Dec when I originally took it in, I told them it sounded like the bushings in the front suspension were bad, missing, or other... 

I just got off phone with Service Dept at Smicklas Chevrolet, and they explained to me that they replaced the stearing shaft ( I don't remember asking them to do this, or them telling me that was an issue )  I enquired about the other noises that I thought were from the suspension, he said, that they did find that the bushings were bad ( eureeka, my Equinox is fixed) ..... crap ......"The bushings are bad, and we have to order more parts for the suspension work." Am I a bit miffed?  Hell yeah... I can go pick up my car again and wait for them to order parts.. maybe it will take another 2 months.... and they can repair something else that wasnt wrong originally?

This is getting rediculous....
