Creaking Noise from Front End

[Altair_Ibn_La_Ahad]

My 2019 Model 3 has started making creaking noises. It happens whenever I brake, accelerate, or travel over bumps, and it looks like it comes from the front. I'm guessing it's strut-related, but I'm not certain.

I'm going to lift the car this weekend to take a closer look. In the meantime, has anyone had a similar experience? If that's the case, what caused the problem? Any tips or things I should look out for would be extremely helpful as I'm kinda confused on what's happening with my car.

I had the same issue with my ride before - such a pain! Luckily, the warranty had my back. I’d say throw in a service request and see what they say. Good luck!

This sounds like a bad UCA. Get it checked to confirm.

Hopefully it is just a control arm. It would be easier to change.
