I had the TSB fix to correct the clunk. When I got my GX back it was sitting 6" lower than before (or more) and looked like it had a full payload in the back. I drove it home and their was no rear suspension evident. I just about chipped my teeth on every miniscule imperfection in the road. I called the dealer back and they said it was fine. I brought it back and they fixed the suspension, but the GX still sits too low and the rear end is no longer higher than the front. One of the things I like about the GX was the driving position, being higher than other SUVS on the road. Now the driving experience is completely different and not what I purchased. I no longer have clunk, but my suspension is about 40% stiffer and the height and angle of the back is not attractive. I will have to bring it back a third time to hopefully it corrected.

Any others experience the same thing?
