Loud creaking noise, R/F
Since returning from a 3000km vacation through British Columbia, Washington, Idaho and Montana, my Durango has developed a very loud creak from what seems to be just behind the R/F wheel. The creak occurs over rolling bumps (like speed bumps) slower speeds but is very noticable on moderate braking (coming to a stop) with the front wheels turned or straight ahead as well as moderate acceleration. Basically anything that rocks the body. Sounds like walking on an old hardwood floor. The noise can be heard over the radio so its very annoying. Heading to the dealership on Monday. Will report back on the cause.
