Default c5 knock

As I slow almost to a stop, there is a knock that sounds like a metal pipe
hitting the under the passenger side of the car. Doesn't happen any other time. Could there be an exhaust pipe/ bracket coming loose? Going to jack up the car this weekend, looking for ideas.

Have your front end checked by a alignment shop,sounds like the eccentric bolts in the lower control arm may be loose!
