Guys, thanks for the tips. Was able to walk into the dealer, give them the service bulletin #'s for both issues, and left with both fixed...

Unfortunately, after ~500 miles, the "clunk" has returned! It's less common, but definitely back... Has anyone asked them to use a sealant like Loctite to keep this issue under control? I can't be leaving my car at the dealership every 500 miles for a couple hours!

Re torque your lug nuts to 140 ft lbs should take care of the clicking.

What are the service bulletin numbers? My bar is loose at 1,700 and it's making noise.

2019 zl1 1le Bad Strut at 60 miles

I picked up my black on black zl11le t A10 the other day. Traded in my 2017 ZL1 the manual for it. Babying it so far. Love the automatic. My GM safe driver rating is at 90.

I got the car at 23 miles, at 50 I started hearing a little clunk. Figured it was the sway bars. Kept getting worse. Found out it was a bad strut. Car sounds like it's getting hit in the bott with a mallet. Passenger side.

Had them check the sway bars and they're fine.

They said they'll have the new part in Monday.

Had a lot of cars, 49 actually, wondering how the hell this happens with a brand new car? Are they having issues with the struts? Or is there a quality control just that bad? I know I'm not the only person that's seen this.
