2015-2017 MKC – Squeaking/Creaking Noise Left Rear – Body Flex Or Twist Conditions: Low Speed Turns, Over Bumps And Turns Into Driveways With Inclines

Some 2015-2017 MKC vehicles may exhibit a squeaking/creaking noise from left rear of vehicle during conditions that cause body twist or flex such as: low speed turns, over bumps and turns into driveways with inclines.

 

This concern could be caused by contact between the bolt for ground 400 (G400) at left hand D-pillar near the seat belt retractor and inner sheet metal structure.

Grind the threaded end of the bolt enough to prevent further interference.

Do not replace the bolt or shim with a washer due to material incompatibility having a long term effect on G400 electrical ground integrity.
