Front suspension squeak came back
 
The dealer changed out the front control arms for my 2012 mustang GT 3 times already. For the 3rd change I was told they were the updated control arms from Ford. I was also told there was a TSB out for this problem. As of now, it only squeaks when I'm going over a speed bump or lets say I pull up into my driveway up the ramp. I don't hear it squeaking over small pot holes or bumps. Another factor I think is the weather, and how hot the car gets. I feel like when the weather is hot, 80 degrees+ or if the car has been driving for an hour it starts squeaking. I'm sick of bringing my car to the dealer just to have them replace the controls arms non stop. Is there a solution to this? anyone else have this problem? My car is 100% stock by the way

I have had my 2012 in to the dealer with the same issue. Mine is a later build date with the newer components and the dealer did nothing and suggested that there may be some dirt up in there that will work itself out. It does seem to be worse in the heat and it has to be a large speed bump for mine to do it. I'm interested in any info or opinions also...

I don't understand why it's so difficult for Ford to fix this issue. When the temperature gets hot does it squeak going over small pot holes and bumps too?

Is it limited to a specific model/options package?
