Hi,
i am hearing creaks in the car when i go over potholes. seem to come from the front passenger side near the glove box, like something in the front is loose. is this covered underthe warranty?. a brand new car (9K) miles on it should not be creaking like that! its driving me insane!

can i take it to the dealer to be fixed under warranty?

You most definitely can! In fact that's what most folks here might suggest. However, there are two things I would like to suggest:

1. Empty your car of everything and take it for a test drive. Just so that you isolate the possibility that it's something in your glove or trunk that's making the noise.

2. If possible, have someone drive for you while you listen for the noise(s). You may be able to zero-in on the source or at least isolate a specific spot and this might help your dealer - rather than just tell them there's a noise in front.

Good luck and let us know how it goes!

:thumbsup:
