I would also look into simply tightening your cradle bolts. That what was causing my Impala to do it... loose bolts. A little blue loctite and I never had the issue again.
That makes sense with the whole injection thing, but still it's a rip off IMO. That's just JB welding your most important part of the car on.

I know this car is an 06, but has it ever had the subframe dropped for any reason? Like replacing the power steering rack or anything? I just thought about one of my VW friends who had the steering rack replaced last year and the show never put locktit on the bolts and last week 2 of the 4 bolts completely came off the car and the subframe was just dangling there. Just a thought.
