| A Qualified GM Mechanic? |
Well, this is a new one. According to one GM dealer, GM has told it to use a soda can and some tin foil to fix the defective front lower control arm in a 2011 Cadillac SRX.
It seems that in some 2011 Cadillac SRX sport utility vehicles there is a repeated popping noise that comes from the front end when you turn the steering wheel during a tight turn and also when braking.
In spite of work on the front axle assembly, shock rod, steering gear rack, strut mounts and brake system - none of which fixed it - GM apparently had a "better idea" in mind.

Yesssiree, now that sounds like a fix that might have come out of someone's back yard, but it hardly makes sense coming from a multi-billion dollar car manufacturer's engineering department. But there it is.

| And just where does that tin foil go? |
Sort of reminds us of the car made back in the 80's where the engine designers apparently didn't talk to the frame designers and after it was all assembled a dealer noticed that the only way you could replace one of the spark plugs was to remove the engine from the car. Real bright, guys.
So, if you own a popping Cadillac SRX, don't be surprised if your dealer doesn't ask you if you have a spare, empty soda can.
And you might be a little suspicious if you see a roll of tin foil on that mechanic's workbench too.
