Squeaking Noise at Low Speed ??

[GoFastJTR]

I have the same squeak on my 2022 JTRD. It only happens after a cold start when you first start moving. It does a couple squeaks then stops. I don't think it's coming from the wheels. Sometimes it squeaks even when the car is not moving.

Truck makes squeaking noise when taking off or rolling at low speed in parking lots. Never happens when brakes or applied. I’ve taken my 2020 Gladiator in to the dealer 3 times now and can’t seem to get the problem resolved. I have provided video/audio of the issue but unable to reproduce while on the lot. Anyone else have similar issue?

I have the exact same noise on my gladiator! Have you ever got it fixed? It’s driving me insane!

It seems that way, but once you drive it a little bit it stops doing it. It only does it if the truck has been sitting parked for a while and then after driving a bit, it stops. For instance, when I leave work tonight, it will do it when I pull out of the parking spot about halfway down the lot then stop. It will start again as I slow down to go around the bend and out of the lot, but then after driving down the street to my office that leads to the main road, I won't hear it again until I park and let it sit a while.

One thing I did mention is it seems temperature sensitive. I had been hearing it much less/not at all when it was getting colder, then as it warmed again recently it was doing it again.

have you ever gotten this issue fixed? My gladiator is doing the exact same thing. I started a new thread trying to explain exactly as you did.

Sorry, somehow I missed this. I haven't gotten mine fixed, it still drives me nuts. It's sad that my 3 year old truck has been squeaking for over a year now, but my 14 year old Grand Cherokee is quiet as a mouse.

I would.

I would.

I get it, just don't want them to keep it for a week or how ever long if it's something I can possibly do.

Do you have a video of your squeak?

Nope not yet, sounds exactly like original post. Only happens when rolling slow and then nothing. Maybe next time I rotate my tires I will start digging around in the brake area.

Has anyone found a fix for this?

Sadly not that I have seen. I can't hear it as much right now with the hardtop on, but I'm sure it'll be back on my nerves come soft top season.

Mine spent 2 days at the dealership and I drove it with the tech but they cannot figure out where it's coming from.

Mine seems to have randomly stopped doing this - haven't taken it in anywhere or really done anything to try and address it.

I live in Colorado and it's been pretty snowy lately so I've had the 4WD engaged a few times...I remember someone saying something about engaging 4WD seeming to have helped in their case, so maybe that had something to do with it? Or maybe the cold weather did something?

Sucks that none of the dealerships seem to be able to figure it out...it's not a huge deal since it stops after a few seconds, but its still very annoying especially for a relatively new (and not cheap) vehicle.

Mine does it too. Mine never did it until the dealership had to replace my front right axle shaft under warranty. Shortly after that, it started the squeaking noise. I’ve just been living with it. I’ve wondered if its the wheel bearing?

Add me to the list of JTs with the 'unidentifiable initial slow roll and disappearing squeak' noise.

Stay on them ,my issues have been corrected with the gladiator

Any chance you can tell me which dealer resolved this for you? Maybe I can get mine to call. Dealer has had it 3 separate times for more than a week each time. I got a loaner but I want mine back. Frustrating.
