Hi all,

I picked up my vehicle from being serviced last week (passenger seat needed new switch to move forward/backward and replaced driver belt). Unfortunately, I am bringing my baby back to the dealer this week because of recent creaking noise in the rear. The sounds is horrible and occurs when I go in/out of my garage, go over bumps and make turns. Are my shocks/struts bad? What could be the problem and what is the estimated cost?
Shouldn't this have been noticed on the 21 point inspection/diagnostics they perform??

 

im not sure but i have the same problem im thinking bushings...............keep me informed

 

I'm taking car into dealer on Thursday. I've been told it could be bushings, sway bar etc. Will let you know.

 

I had a similar problem and my rear struts were blown.

 

someone on hear says its the rear seat brace, you have to remove the rear seats to get to it. they need to be loctited.

i have the same problem, trying to find out how to remove the rear seats.

 

Problem fixed. Got my baby back from dealer yesterday. It was the sway bar. It cost a little over $200 to repair.

 

OK GUYS,

i attempted to find my annoying creak in the inside toward the back, which happens when i go over big bumps or turning into my driveway.

i FOUND my problem, there is a gray cross brace behind the seats and some sound proofing mat, those screws/bolts were very loose and when i tightened them the creak went right away ! that saved me some coin from going to the dealer out of warranty !

i suggest if you have the creak in the rear that sounds loud inside tighten up everything you can find behind the seats(you have to take the seats out, buts it easy)

 

I hope they didn't charge you $200 to lube your rear bushings. What exactly did they do for your money?
