FYI FX35 2009 owners

Just hit 2k miles and noticed a noise when i go over speed bumps. So took the car in today and they said the front left strut needs to be replaced. The guy in the shop said this is the 4th or 5th car he has seen with the same problem on the 09 fx. Once again I love the car its great. just writing this as FYI....Thanks

The FX doesn't run struts up front anymore. The front suspension layout was changed to a double wishbone setup for '09.
