Anyone have link to the strut problems?

Have you taken a good look at the inside of your front tires and the struts to affirm that there is rubbing? If there is wear, take the car to a Pontiac dealer for a thorough checkout and have them replace the tires, as needed, and do a front end alignment to correct the problem. Hopefully they won't give you any problem with warranty work since the tire rubbing/strut problem is quite well documented.
Let us know what happens.
I have an '05 with nearly 10K and no problems with this particular complaint. I also keep after the tire pressure (running 35 psi) on a regular basis - and rotation every 5K (it's just about due for that now). Helps with gas mileage and reduced tire wear. Admittedly, 35 psi is a little high for stop-light to stop-light racing traction, but not for all around cruising, especially at elevated speeds. The tires stay cooler (believe it or not) at higher pressure. Don't exceed the manufactiurers recommended maximum pressure.
