Creaking rear suspension on 2014?
 
Left rear has a loud creak each time I get out of the car, sounds like what a '72 dodge dart should sound like. Only 2200 miles, any ideas? Yes I plan to take it into the dealer when I get a chance.

white lithium grease is your friend.

This.

I had the same issue with my coilovers, applied white lithium grease once, and haven't had any issues in 2 years since.

a diet?


J/K hit it with some lithium like mentioned

Mine does the same thing, 11,000 miles.

Mine has done it since new. I isolated it to the emergency brake. Try this:
Don't set the brake and get in and out of the car. If it stops there's the problem. The dealer tried to fix it and a week later the noise returned so I just live with it. Not a big deal.
If it's not the e-brake, take it to the dealer.

It's the e brake, my 2011 does it too

Our cars come with e-brake? I thought it was just for show..

kenchan 03-19-2014 11:20 AM

my ebrake does not make noise.

My spare tire (for the car) started making creaking sounds when driving because the hand tightened tension bolt to keep it in place came loose. I put some elbow grease into it and problem solved.

hope you're able to loosen it when you most need the donut..
