Default Squeaking suapension

I have a 2016 Camry with 34k miles on it. I noticed this winter that the suspension squeaks when going over significant bumps. I have heard these sounds in older cars, but it seems unusual to hear them in a car with so few miles. I do not drive "hard", on on many rough roads.

Typically squeaks happen as suspension bushing(s) wear, however 34K is normally too soon for that.

On an older car would suspect the sway bar bushings. Easy enough to replace.

Try to narrow down the area of the noise, front or rear and which side of car.

Since car is still under warranty. Suggest having the dealer check it out. This by driving over the same type of bumps you have on a cold day. Perhaps you can find some bumps close to the dealer that cause noise.

Most likely just moving the suspension up and down by hand isn't going to cause noises.

Best to have the dealer hear the noise to get a better response.

The car is safe to drive.
