I recently had the brakes replaced on my 2001 Buick Park Avenue. I have since noticed a rattle noise when the car goes over a divot, hole, or depression in the road. It is definitely in the front end and only happens when the brakes are not applied. With the brakes depressed the noise can't be heard.

Hello,

It sounds like the anti rattle clips were not installed properly and moves around when the brake is not pressed. That is the rattle you hear when going over a bump.
If you had this changed at a shop you should take it back to them to get this fixed properly.

Here is a basic video of the brake pad replacement:

Let me know if you have any questions.

Thank you.
