    Another front end question

    Ok i have a 2008 magnum sxt awd 3.5, and for 3 years the traction control light and the esp light are both on. every once and a while they go out to only come back on.

    i had the front end warranty work done (clunking in the front) in 2010.

    i put new tires on her in 2011.

    2011 had a wheel alinement.

    april 2012 all new brakes, calipers, and rotors.


    now the traction control light and the esp light are still on, but now i have a funny noise coming from the front end, sounds like an old squeaky door when i hit a bump or ride on a rough road. the noise is from the passenger side.

    any ideas?

    thanks

    My experience is the creaking sound is a bad rubber bushing. Probably on your lower control arm or upper control arm.

    Yes. But look them over first to be sure. A dry ball joint can also creak. But for me it has been the bushings every time.
