Mazda 5 suspension noise issue with front and rear components, considering swing bar bushing replacement for quieter ride on Mazda 5

Some Mazda 5 owners report experiencing suspension noise issues, including rattling noises in the front suspension due to worn sway bar bushings, as well as squeaky sounds from both the front and rear components that make it feel like parts are about to fall off the vehicle. To address these problems, some owners have had dealers replace rear sway bar bushings with mixed success, while others have replaced both front and rear bushing rubbers, only to see the squeaking return after a couple of years. Common repair actions taken include replacing tie rod bushings, wheel bearings, and sway bar bushings. Repair costs can vary significantly, with tie rod bushing replacements averaging around $500 and sway bar bushing replacements costing approximately $120. Addressing these worn sway bar bushings may lead to a quieter ride and help resolve the rattling noises in the front suspension.
