When the vehicle is turning right over uneven surfaces (or bumps), the vehicle makes crunching/creaking sounds that may suggest suspension issues or fear of driving the vehicle. Dealer does not understand the issue and unable to repair. It would appear related to engine mount rubber that can reduce noise if applying lubricating sprays, but unsure if any affect to vehicle safety.
With the steering wheel turned to its far right extreme, the front suspension emits a loud creaking noise when there is an incline, such as entering a parking lot entrance or driveway. This is the only time I hear the creaking noise. This concerns me because I'm afraid the noise indicates a failing or faulty suspension component, which could possibly lead to loss of vehicle control should the faulty part fail with the vehicle in motion.
