Front passenger side squeaking

[Jmaione]

Hey everybody I'm new to this thread and I'm really out of options I don't know where else to turn I've been having this really annoying noise that only occurs when the vehicle is in motion I've taken it to my dealership where I bought it multiple times and they can't figure out what's wrong with it or they say that they cannot hear the noise. They even told me that it could be a loose wiring harness which I think is ridiculous. They also told me that Vehicles as they age things start to move around and make noise. It just sounds to me that they're making excuses for not being able to figure it out or not wanting to figure it out and also told me that it's going to cost me thousands of dollars for them to tear it apart and try to diagnose it because they don't know what it is. I'll attach the video below of the noise

if you have a gopro or similar camera attach it underneath and point it at various spots ie I would start by pointing it at your front passenger wheel area. also jack up the front of your vehicle and spin the front tires and see if you can track it down that way.

also make sure your shock bolts are tight and your swaybar link bolts are tight.

Have you tried another dealership? You might be able to ride along with them to point out the noise.

I was contemplating another dealership but I did test drive a bunch of times where I bought the vehicle and they basically said that there is nothing wrong with the vehicle that they checked everything in everything is good.

That dealership says there's nothing wrong with it. You disagree. You won't take it to another dealership, so all we can do is try to give other ideas for how to diagnose it. Things like buying remote microphones and using those to track down the noise.

Or, deities forbid, take it to another dealership.

I'm going to try another dealership as well but if it's something I can do at home I figured I'd ask here to see if anybody had any solutions or ideas as to what it was

If the second dealership is of little help, I would go through every bolt you can find, and some you can't. When my wife's JLUR starts making noise, it's typically one of the link bolts or shock mounts, like @jadmt mentioned.

My vote is for one of the sway bar links or possibly a coil spring. After installing my lift, I had a similar sound only louder coming from the passenger side rear where I’d messed up a coil spring sleeve. Mine was easy to replicate while parked by pushing up and down on the rear corner. Hopefully one of your sway bar links is a little loose and just needs to be tightened. If it happens to be a spring, I went with one of these and I’ve been squeak less for over a year now. https://www.034motorsport.com/coil-spring-sleeves.html Good luck!

Do you have the AC on when the noise happens? I had a squeaky blower motor once upon a time...

1) Use a torque wrench and double check all suspension hardware,
2) Have someone jump up and down on the bumper while you listen from outside the vehicle
3) Jack up one corner of the Jeep at a time and spin the wheel by hand while you listen

No I don't

I drove a vehicle at my job that had something similar going on. My company had a gps on it and it would sometimes make a little noise like that. If you bought it used might be something
