We seem to be have a problem with noise in the front end. My husband thinks maybe a tie rod or ball joint on the drivers side. Have you heard of anyone else having such a problen

I have a 2007 Cobalt also and I went through the same problem with my car. The noise started on one side then the other side started making it too. It is the control arm bushings. They get moved out of position from hitting potholes and bumps in the road. I had them replaced now my car is as good as new.
