bumping noise from left front tire
JUST got my car back from the dealer (battery issue resolved) and noticed a bumping/thumping noise that seems to becoming from the left front tire as it rotates. It's more pronounced at slower speeds and becomes indistinguishable at higher speeds. I do not think it is a tire issue because the tires were just rotated and I had noticed this before and thought it went away. Any ideas on what this could possibly be?

Have you looked inside the wheel well at all? See if the fender lining is pulled out or anything like that?

Do you hear the noise at all times or just on bumps/uneven surfaces? If the latter, I have the same issue. *sigh*

Did you thoroughly check the tire for foreign objects? Nails, rocks? Etc
