I started hearing a loud clunking noise in the right rear of my car about 2 mos. after purchase. It only happened at low speeds going over a bump. Sounded like the car was bottoming out. Brought it to the dealership three times within the first year and they could find no problems. Brought it to an independent mechanic after first 6 mos. and he could find nothing. At about 50, 000 mi. a squeaking started and the clunking stopped. I brought it back to the dealership and they told me a bolt was loose causing the squeak. They tightened the bolt and the squeaking stopped for about 2 mo. Now the squeaking has started again.Does anyone have any idea what could be causing this problem?
