squeaking sound from suspension

[CX5BC]

Hi,
My 1.5 year old CX-5 GS developed squeak when driven low speed (10 miles) over small sharp bumpy roads.
I took to dealer and he can hear it, but he said your car is over 1 year and not covered under warranty.
Any one has any idea what to do? Please let me know. (the squeaking does not happened all the time)
Thanks

Well where is the squeak coming from exactly?

The squeak is coming from I think front suspension area but can not pin point.

There are TSBs regarding suspension squeak... some involve replacing a strut mount, and possibly the entire strut assembly. I don't know what warranties are like in Canada, but that is definitely covered in the US 3-year bumper to bumper.

Thank you. In canada the speaks are covered for 1 year. My dealer tightened the suspension free of charge and it is better but still speaks. If anyone had front suspenaion speaks fixed please let me know.
Thanks

1 year is for 'adjustments', but these are usually very minor things. Squeaks are more serious and should be covered under warranty. Try a different dealer?

Not sure in the CX-5, but typically this squeak comes from the sway bar. The ends don't squeak, but the two points that connect it to the body can squeak when grease wears thin. If you unbolt these points and re-grease the sway bar under these points, it will go away.

My 2 year old CX5 squeaks when going in and out of potholes / bumps or uneven roads. This noise / squeak is only at low speeds and comes from the front. I was planning to take the car for an inspection but decided not to as I am trading my car in for a 2015 CX5. I have had these squeaks for almost 8 months now and the car has 50000 kms on it.
