"Squeak" from molding under the steering column

[gmcleer]

Anyone got a fix for the "squeak" that appears to be coming from the molding under the steering column. I only hear it when hitting bumps. I did a search but didn't find anything for this particular noise.

 

THANKS!

I only just noticed it a few weeks ago. It appears to be the hood latch. For now and until I get around to solving the problem I just turn the radio up higher.

If I push on the molding it seems to stop momentarily. I'm going to check near the hood release tmrw. Thanks

Near the center console the metal frame that the plastic molding clips into was lose on mine, I jammed a piece of rubber in between two pieces of dash molding and it fixed it. Ill grab a picture.

Now that I look at it I actually jammed it in between the plastic dash piece under the steering wheel and the metal bracket. It's really hard to tell what I did in the picture.

Hood release likely culprit. Zip tie

I had the same issue. I zip-tied the cable for the hood release to a metal piece directly above it, then I took some foam insulation and wedged it closer top the center console on top of the metal clip. Problem seems to be solved
