Final Answer :
B
Explanation :
Worn sway bar links typically cause rattling or knocking noises when driving over bumps or during turns, not specifically on acceleration or deceleration. The other options (worn control arm bushing, worn ball joint, and worn CV joint) can cause clunking noises during acceleration or deceleration due to the play or movement in these components.
