Has there been anyone from Ontario, Canada with success with this issue? I am currently in Milton, Ont and wondering what needs to be said and done properly. Thanks.

The thrust bearing between the top of the strut and the strut mount that protrudes into your engine compartment. The strut turns with the front wheels, the mount doesn't, and the thrust bearing allows for that turning.
