2013 with about 4600 miles. Mine also has loud squeaking/creaking noise from front end when going slowly over bumps. I thought that was something I'd have to live with, sounds like I should take it in and see what they say.

Definitely YES on the lower control arm (LCA) squeaking. You should definitely take it in to the dealer..your mileage is about the same as mine was when the noises began.

Researched this on various websites and it was described as a common issue. Dealer replaces one or both LCA assemblies. Most of the time this solves the problem, but apparently not in all cases.

Only one side was making most of the noise but dealer replaced both of them. Service advisor seemed to know exactly what I was talking about when I described the problem. I believe there is a service bulletin on this as well.

2011, 3.7L (built June 2010) / 6r80 AT, glass roof and all the goodies , 165000km (~103000mi) , no issues at all or any roadside failures. It was idle hunting ONCE after driving it for 6hours straight. Happened right after i pumped gas. Gave it a few hard revs and it went away after re-starting. Could be bad gas or a throttle body glitch or i heard it could of been from quickly releasing the gas nozzle from the entry. Hasn't happened since.

Been through the regular maintenance such as
- set of sp-520 spark plugs and boots at 120000km
- Transmission fluid + filter changed once with amsoil (6.5L) @ 125000km
- Gets one bottle of amsoil p.i down the gas tank once every 2 months.
- Changed the air raid air filter to the dry cone after having sloppy idle rpm.
- Cleaned maf sensor 5 times in its life.
- Throttle body cleaned every 15-20k.
- Oil changed every 8-10k and engine is still clean as a whistle down the fill port.
- Koni rear shocks.
- Differential fluid and friction modifier changed every 1.5years
- Rust proofed yearly with fluid film.
- Moog front end links (due to a loose rattle in the front end)
- Waterpump replaced @ 141000km
- both serpentine & ac belts were changed.
- interstate battery put in @ 72000km

In the near future, I will probably change the trans fluid again to get rid of the old mercon LV. SR rear control arms. Koni front struts, new mounts and springs. And maybe do an induction cleaning for once.

Just pushed 25,000 miles.

Only problem I've had is the cheap plastic underneath front bumper (guessing it's for wind resistance) going to the motor had one break and was rattling. Put a small wire on it and tightened it back down.
