Creaking Sound When Initially Accelerating

Is this the same noise you guys are hearing too? Mine is happening at low speeds and especially while turning.

I'm going to wait until I hear the new half shafts are making it to the service centers and hopefully get them replaced at the same time as the tonneau and my other punch list of little things.

Did a 500+ mile trip over the weekend to Tahoe. Today driving in the parking garage at work noticed a new noise. Turns out my passenger side front decided to join the creaking club today. Truck has 4300 miles on it. Ticket logged and appointment scheduled.

Coming from mine as well. Started today What a terrible sound.

Same here, creaking sound started today while slowing down, turning and accelerating. Along with the spooky frunk sounds that started last week, this is starting to feel like some crude Tesla fart joke. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I had service last week for this sound. Picked up my car on Thursday and today I noticed that the sound is either back or still there.

I just roll up my window. Shorter wait then the service center. Been creaking for about 2 months.

According to Tesla people this is an unsolvable problem of EV's. I don't think I buy it, but who knows. Seems the new ones do it too. So maybe nature of beast.

I’ve heard of the knocking sound being “unsolvable”, but not so much the creaking. I haven’t had this issue for the first 3 months of ownership, so hopefully they can fix it

Sounds similar to an aluminum soda can being crunched. Definitely not the motor knock we are talking about here. That's been there since day 1 and accepted that as normal reality. No longer use conserve now and seems to all but gone away in all-purpose. (For now)

I have a late 2021 Tesla model y performance with 10k miles. No weird sounds coming when accelerating or decelerating. Drive train and suspension are quiet.

I have this faint creek as well. Front Left only, or so I think. I will use my lift and see what I can find as time allows. Mine is only from a dead stop to 3mph if that...

this is exactly what i have too. going in for service next week among other things

Picked up my truck from the Service Center today. The creaking noise in the video is gone (for now anyway).

Add me to the list - same creaking sound started today - 3K miles in. Would be nice to be able to fix it myself - the SC wait times are brutal
