The reason for inquire..... when i hit a small bump on the passenger
side, I here a noise coming from the passenger front tire area. This
noise is sometimes head on the passenger side when I hit a small bump
on the driver side tire. The noise is always from the passengers side.
It's like a thump.....

any ideas?

AFAIK, auto leveling is a standard option (and is only available on)
Touring/Wagon models. You don't say what you have.

I'd suggest you need bushings somewhere before shocks.

Having said that, I don't know how to tell if you have auto-leveling or not.
But, even if you need shocks, the odds are very good they would not make any
noise, but bushings would certainly make the noises you describe.
