Well there are a couple of things that come to mind right off the bat....

1. Warped brake rotors caused by the rear brakes being out of adjustment, the "self adjusters" on the HHR's rear drums seldom work and they should be adjusted manually at every oil change or 5,000 miles/8,000km.

2. Sway bar end links, they'll usually make a clunking over low speed bumps, especially noticeable in parking lots.

3. Sway bar bushings, see #2 above, they'll complain at low speeds.

4. Intermediate shaft in the steering column, they were/still are an issue especially on the '06 model year.

Pop these into the "Search" function in the toolbar at the top of the page, lots of threads to read, and lots of info on the fixes.
