I would like to chime in hear. My premier RS started to make a clunking noise at 500 miles at slows speeds. I just thought it was a tight suspension needing break in. After 2500 miles I took it in to my chevy dealer in central Florida and told them in detail about the clunking noise. I also had researched for any technical bulletins and could only find the front bearing bolts not torque properly but my cruze was built after the notice went out. The chevy dealer could not find anything wrong and tighten everything. The next day of driving the noise was still present. I called and took it back. Told them I would like a ride along with a tech. We drove the car on smooth surface at slow speeds and the noise was present. I left the car for more diagnostic and the dealer called be back with the results. They told be bad tie rod ends. This was on Saturday 9/10/2016. They ordered the parts that same day. The tie rod ends are to arrive today 9/14/2016. I will keep everyone up to date when I get the car back. Should be Thursday. This maybe another hush hush problem that chevy is having with the new cruze.
