Check and make sure your spoiler is not rubbing your roof when the hatch opens or when it is closed.
There is a known issue with this and it will cause your spoiler to break off.

 

Also check to make sure the push clips for all of your interior panels and roof trim are fully seated. They have been known to be improperly installed by the factory so something could be loose.

 

Yes especially the trim panel right on the top inside of the rear opening.
Dodge manufacturing installers are not very good.

Thanks everyone, luckily I had an oil change booked today so I mentioned it. They heard the noise as well and I will need to take it in another day. I will keep you posted.

 

Ok so I have an update on this for anyone searching. Rear exhaust was rubbing bumper, so that was adjusted. Still a couple other noises, which was the exhaust heat shield rubbing the exhaust as well. There was also a lower shock bolt that was loose, so that was retorqued. I believe it was the heat shield that was making most of the noise, but it has been resolved now. Thanks everyone.

 

I seem to be experiencing the same creaking in my 2022 SRT, which I believe has the same exhaust as your TnG. My dealer claims that they cannot replicate the sound even though every time I get into the truck, I hear the noise. It almost sounds like it's coming from inside, but I haven't been able to replicate the noise by moving and pushing on things and no one that I've asked to help has been able to pinpoint the location. It's extremely annoying considering it's a $95K vehicle and only a few months old. By any chance, did your dealer give you any additional details about where the noise was originating, how they found it and what they did to fix it? Any insight you could provide would be greatly appreciated.

 

Hey, sorry I should have updated this. the next summer the noise actually came back and it came back much worse. The good news is that the mechanic drove around with me and could hear it as well. They had the vehicle for awhile and ended up getting an engineer to take a look. It was a rear bushing that was completely destroyed. They had the rear end completely taken off to replace it. It wasn't a pretty sight. It's fixed now and never heard the noise since. I can't find the work order to give you the details, but it's definately just an odd issue with mine. Hopefully yours isn't the same situation. I'll see if I can get a copy emailed to me.

 

Yikes. That doesn't sound good at all. Strange that the exhaust and heat shield adjustment solved the issue initially. How long did it take them to figure out that the source was the bushing? Was the bushing part of the suspension? Thanks for the reply.

 

Maybe this: Anyone else expirence a creeking noise in the front end...

 

Interesting. I think my tires were rotated when I got my first oil change, but my creaking is coming from the rear. My truck is at the dealership right now so I can't check if that same part is present on the rear of the vehicle. I will ask in the other thread.

 

This was my rear inside noise. It popped out an caused a load squeaking noise metal on metal.

 

Thanks for the reply. What is that and where is it located? The dealership currently has my truck and they've taken apart the entire rear interior. Hopefully, they can put it back together without making it worse.

 

OK, thank you.

 

Hey I have 22 DDsrt. I think I’m hearing the same noise. It started when it became very cold and then continued to get worse. It seems to happen only when it squats under acceleration. I took it to the dealer about 4 times and they tried blaming it on the x pipe and resonator delete. I told them 2 exhaust places said the mounting of fine. Then finally they said that it was a normal noise. For what we pay it’s unbelievable that they just say it’s normal so you go away.
It honestly ruins the drive listening to it squeak. I’m curious to fixes. Please keep this thread going.

Rob.

 

I can't stand squeaks and rattles and I totally agree that this shouldn't be happening on a vehicle that costs this much. The noise has to be coming from somewhere, but after a week of being at the dealer, they can't find it. They have removed all of the interior components but it still creaks when accelerating, so it must be coming from underneath. I've told them to check the bushings, as that was what @PilsNer's problem was, but they haven't confirmed whether they have even looked at them. I'm getting extremely frustrated and I don't know what my next course of actions should be. If anyone has any suggestions, please offer them.

 

Sorry for the delay, and sorry, (obviously canadian) I was incorrect on the part I finally got a copy of the work order. This is what it says:

That's awesome! Thank you very much. I will pass this along to my dealership.

 

Leduc Chrysler. They've been great and happy they've resolve the issue without calling me crazy hah.

 

Great, thank you.

 

Update on the creaking noise, after more than a week at the dealership:

After numerous trial and error attempts and minimal assistance from the Dodge Tech Line, the technician was finally able to make the noise stop. In reading the work order, it seems that the successful action was to "lower the rear cross member and lubricate the cross member bushings." The creaking noise was gone immediately after performing this step. Hopefully, this is helpful to @Role15, and ayone else that has this issue in the future. I'm happy to provide any additional information if anyone needs any.

 

Glad to hear it was nothing like my issue!

 

Hey thanks for the update. I’ll have them look into this. It’s driving me nuts.

 

Mine started to make noise again, I'm really hoping this time it's just lubricating the cross member bushings... It's been extremely dry here so hoping that's all.

 

Can we get to the bushings without a trip to the dealer and a fight with factory warranty people?

 

I have the same noise in my 2022 TNG with 19k miles. Dealership diagnosed as a worn bushing in the right rear control arm. They are replacing the control arm under warranty. Seems extremely early for something like that to go bad. I have towed a 6k pound trailer a few thousand miles, but I have not driven this hard at all. Thinking about whether I need to buy that extended warranty before the factory one is up later this summer.

 

I’m dealing with the same creaking noise on my 22 RT TNG right now! Dealership appointment on Tuesday and I hope they can fix it. I’ll mention some of the things from this thread and see if it helps.

 

The first time the dealership thought the creaking was due to the spoiler recall (mine was misaligned). I questioned that, but figured I'd let them try first. Have someone ride in the back to listen when you drive. I did that, and after one turn in the parking lot the service manager said "I've heard enough" which led to them identifying the worn bushing(s).

 

I still have this issue. On my third dealership and booking it in soon.

 

Did you ever replace the control arm?

 

No that hasn't been done, but perhaps I'll try lubing the bushings. It's does tend to be worse when it's dry out.

I'll see what they come up with next. Maybe I'll just see if moog has any
