Left Rear Creak - 2019 Denali 800 Miles

[k-man21]

At what point do you guys draw the line, and finally say, "This needs to get looked at?" I have a new Yukon Denali with 800ish miles on it, and the left rear suspension creaks. I hear it essentially every time I get in and out of the truck. How long should I give it to let all the components, etc. settle before bringing it back in?

 

My concern, is I just spent $3k to get the truck fully ceramic coated, and I do not trust the dealership to not touch the paint. Every time I have ever picked a car up from a service visit, they are covered in fingerprints, all along the front edge of the hood, door edge, and plus where ever they are working. It really irks me how wreckless they are, and I do as much of the work on my cars as possible due to it. Not to mention, the risk of them taking it through a touch car wash.

Bring it back as soon as you  can so they cant  come  up with an excuse that it was caused by you.  If they  say its still breaking in at least  you  have it documented and can go back after a reasonable  break in period.

Get that looked at. I know what you mean about fingerprints everywhere. Had my motor mounts changed an found cigarette butts in the engine bay. I don’t go there unless it’s absolutely necessary and under warranty. Pisses me off. We spend all this money and they don’t care[emoji2959]

Say it with meeeee.

 

W.A.R.R.A.N.T.Y.

 

Find.  Another.  Dealer.  That.  Cares.  

 

OK with that out the way......

 

Does it creak/squeak when driving?  Slow speeds, high speeds, parking lots?  Do you have any type of factory running boards?

Ok. So I went outside and see if I had it. Sure enough. Only left side. Never noticed it. Doesn’t make noise when getting in or out

I figured out the issue on my own. Took some deep Googling, since there really doesn't seem to be much of a community posting about these trucks, but here is the issue and how to fix it.

Good catch. Wonder if some grease would do the trick

Grease washes off.

Here at the dealer we’ve been taking rubber hose and run a razor blade vertically down it, then you take that bracket off and slide the rubber hose onto it. Permanent repair.

What size hose if you don't mind? I'd like to fix mine myself.

Thanks, do you slit it and then wrap it around that squared bracket the cables run through, or wrap it around the actual cables?

[tlaw91]

Yeah slit it then use some GM rust penetrate and slide it over the bracket
