Default Question re: front suspension noise...Long, TIA

About a year ago I had a meeting with a curb requiring A LOT of front suspension replacement parts. Since then, there has been a rattle in both R and L front ends whenever I hit uneven pavement while cornering. The noise will not happen over bumps driving straight at speed, but will make a slight noise when hitting bumps at slow speeds. The dealer has checked it numerous times and has said everything's tight.
Any suggestions? I'm considering asking them to take apart the entire front suspension and rebuild it. Since my repairs are lifetime guaranteed by the insurance company, I think I'm OK. What would you guys do?

Have a tech go out for a drive with you. That solved my problems.
