Report: Squeak or Creak Noise When Driving Over Bumps
Lincoln Zephyr Problem
Model Year Affected: 2006
Average Mileage: 68,109 mi (6,200 mi - 120,000 mi)
A squeak or creak noise may be noted when driving over bumps. Our technicians tell us of two possible causes. The lower control arm may have faulty welds or the strut jounce bumper could be rubbing on a dry strut plate. There is a factory repair kit for the lower control arms. If the noise is coming from the strut it may require dis-assembly to lubricate the jounce bumper.

Squeaking... Thought it was shocks. Tire shop couldn't find anything... Also, now having problem with plastic crappy shifter and ac therm control went out... Time to get rid of this car!

Just last week our car started creaking and squeaking when we were going slow. Haven't fixed it yet, but glad this might be whats causing it... that's the first step to fixing the problem, right?

Definitely sounds like the car needs lubrication.. I first noticed it during one of the coldest days in February. Then, I went for weeks without really noticing it. It became very noticeable yesterday afternoon. I did not recall hearing it this morning.

Same problem. Squaks when driving over bumps, used to do it in the winter months only and now it is doing it in warmer weather too.

Yes, my car sounds like something needs oiling when I turn the wheels and creaks as it goes over bumps.
