Angry Took the GXP to the dealer

Well I'm going on my vacation a week from today, I notice a thumping noise when I slow down to a stop, so I looked under the car and see that grease from my left CV shaft split and all over my strut and rim (Big mess) and I see a leak around the rack or tranny pan (whole rear sub frame).....The car had the rack replaced at GM 2 weeks ago.

I hope it will be fixed before friday the 4th, If not I'm still taking the car on my vacation.

sorry to hear that. Any idea where the thumping is coming from?

I'm going to guess from a CV joint that no longer has any grease....

probably wouldn't be the best idea to drive it on vacation then.

Well GM says they will look at it today, the thumping noise could be the exhaust rumbling, but when I go on my vacation I'm getting it worked on (3" piping)
