Sonata 6-cyl

  • 20,000 miles
Hyundai Sonata 2009 limited front loud thud noise when going over small bumps and when turning right. The thud noise is only from the passenger side front strut. There is a big difference when you hit a bump on the drivers side and the passenger side. Is a pretty obvious noise. Dealer replaced right strut and insulator and the noise continues. Dealer say they cannot just change out parts unless they find a problem. Car acts like the front suspension is coming apart when turning to the right and going over small bumps. Problems is a safety issue because something seems to be falling apart on the front end when turning and while going over small bumps.
