The acadia has two common problems for front end noises. You likely have worn lower control arm bushings. You will need both front lower control arm bushings. Also it is common for the struts to wear out from about 75k miles up. If they are leaking or have a harsh ride you should replace those as well.

SOURCE: 2002 gmc envoy front suspension noise

the clunking or rattle sound is actually coming from the end links on the anti sway bar. You won't hear it on the bumper test. Good luck.

Banging noise

It sounds as though something is loose, probably in the front end. Check, or have a shop check the front end components or for any loose body parts that could be causing the nose. I hope this helps.

Banging noise when you drive

This is a hard problem to describe, I know, and I will toss out a few possibilities. If the noise occurs when the car is accelerating, it can be motor mounts, or carriage mounts on front-wheel drive vehicles. Transmissions can bang into gear. Drive shaft u-joints can bang before they fail. C-V joints in front wheel or 4 wheel drive units can bang when worn out.

The exhaust system can break loose and bang on the frame. Brake calipers can rock in their mounts and transmit sound. Tie-rod ends can make a knocking noise on every bump you hit. There were recalls on gas tank straps for some Ford made units, so a loose gas tank can bang.

Loud bang when I hit a bump with my foot on the break. No sound at all if I hit a bump without my foot on the brake. What is this?

indicates that lower suspension rubbers are broken and should be inspected by an accredited front suspension professional service center
