Hoping someone knows what it could be or has an idea of how to diagnose my issue. Rubi is completely stock.

The best way I can describe it is it sounds like a squeak.. perhaps like when you drift a bit and the wheels slide side ways..or when you lock a couple wheels.. its really brief..

It happens when I have the wheel turn..and perhaps when the suspension gets a bit compressed? I would say it happens almost 90% of the time when I pull into my drive way which is a bit of an incline. Other times is when I am making a sharp turn. I can't imagine it being the tire sliding although I've never driven anything like this before. Nor can I imagine the suspension bottoming out.. Perhaps loose inner fenders? they appear fine to me.. Any ideas?

Is it a squeak or a click. I had a issue and they just diagnosed it as the rubber grommets between bed and cab but sounds like a click when turning and when suspension contracts when pulling in garage.

I am. Was going to have them look when I did my first oil change. Android auto stopped working as well. Do I have to pay diagnostic fee for something under warranty? Never had a brand new car before. Not sure how it works.. lol

Hi Billy,
If the repair is deemed warrantable, the diagnostic fee will also be covered.

I have the same issue...it seems to be a squeak on the front passenger Side suspension. Happens when making turns mainly left hand turns and when going over bumps. Havenā€™t had it looked at yet. Anyone come up with a diagnosis?

See my thread about a squeak posted yesterday. We may have similar conditions.
