22 powerboost squeaking

[UC0001]

My 2022 ford f150 lariatt powerboost hybrid with 7500 miles is squeaking (likes brake squeaking but do not think they are brakes). I have tried to nail down symptoms but it happens (or at least I heat it) at slower speeds when accelerating, decelerating, or steady speed. It might be when battery is charging? Happens sometimes when braking or not braking. Now that I have heard it, it is driving me nuts. Any ideas what it could be?

Thanks in advance

Hey there. I can look into your F-150’s noise concerns on my end if you’d like. Will you send us a private message with your VIN and dealership info?

I have squeaking that comes from under the rear axle, mostly when braking, I thought its the rear brake pads but after inspecting both brakes I can tell for sure it is not the brake pads being worn down. It is quite annoying and would like to get to the bottom of what is causing this. People who heard it say it could be the suspension.

@UC0001 & @iceman77

Do either of you happen to have the Max Tow package?

Good morning, Pete- I can look into this for you. Feel free to send over a private message with your VIN and dealership information at your earliest convenience.

Watch closely at the RPM gauge and see if this sound correlates going either to 0 RPM (lifting foot off the pedal to try and trigger it sometimes helps), or possibly combing back out of hybrid mode. If so, this could be the exhaust heat exchanger extender valve issue that is posted about elsewhere in the forums and can be repaired under warranty. Mine sounded like a squeak, mostly going into 0 RPM, but occasionally also when coming out and accelerating.

Mine is Max Tow package and the squeaking is most noticeable when brakes are applied. I would have sworn it’s the brake pads being worn down but after close inspection, that is not the case. I am aware of the axle bolt shearing off issue but from my understanding that would cause rather a rattling, not a squeaking sound

I had this happen this morning after driving in the rain. Very low speed while shifting between park, reverse and drive. Sounds just like grabbing brakes only I wasn't pressing on the brake pedal. 2021 Ford f150 lariat SuperCrew with 17,400 MI.

Found the culprit

That's not supposed to be a "squeak"

Although considering it's your truck, YOU should squeal!

Dropped the truck off with dealer. Hope it gets fixed soon

Hi there! Would you send us a private message with your VIN and dealership name and location? I’d like to look into this concern on my end.
