Hey All,
I Have a 2021 80A. More than not, I am having a " Squeaking" noise coming from the rear diff area. Almost like the sound the tires make when you have a locked diff. Jeep has a little over 1k on it right now and does it when on both wet and dry pavement. I've looked at the tires and there doesn't seem to be any odd wear patterns that you would get from a locked diff. Took to the dealer in Dec. and they could not get it to duplicate.

Anyone had the same issue?

Thanks

Yes, I get a small squeak noise from the driver's rear every once and a while when I take off. It pretty much goes away when the truck is warmed up. I took it to the dealer twice for the recalls, and both times they said they could not recreate it. Check to see that your inside brake pad caliper spring is not broken, that could cause it.
