Strange sounds coming from Front Wheels Jeep compass 2008, HELP!!!

Asked by Arn Apr 27, 2018 at 02:04 AM about the 2008 Jeep Compass North 4WD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

Jeep Compass 2008 North Edition 2.4L Front and 4 Wheel drive Manual
Transmition (134 837 Miles)
I Have two problems with my vehicle HELP!!

First problem: Sometimes when i accelerate or decelerate, mostly on gear 1
to 3,  i hear a high pitched SQUEAK, metal/rubber like sound mostly  from
the driver side and around 2000-3500 rpm, the sound happens mostly when
there is torque/ Downshifting/ sometimes but rarely on shifts but more on
downshifts and when GAS is given (RPM up), the squeak sound lasts for half
a second. A quick SQUEAK.


Last problem: When i hit bumps on the road i hear a TICKING sound coming
from the passager side, it is loud and sounds like something is loose, when i
brake over bumps, it stops and no sound can be heard. When i kick the
wheel from the front kicking towards the face of the tire facing the bumper,
the wheel makes loud ticking sound like a loose bolt. When the car is jacked
up and kicking the wheel, cant hear or feel any ticking noise, nothing is loose
or seem damaged, control arms are NEW and brake pads have been
changed, caliper seems tight and good. i checked every parts and bolts for
loose but everything is tight and bushings are good.

Thanks please help!!! Cant find those problems even my local mechanic
shop cant find the origin of those sounds. Everytime i drive my car i feel like
everything is going to fall apart!
(Transmition has been rebuilt completely 20 000 miles ago)

Car sounds travel like sound waves and tend to trick people sounds that seem to come from The right side end up being the left and front sounding problems end up being rear problems, you may have wheel bearing issues the bearing is designed to make noise answer rub when it needs replacing

I have same kind of problem with same car. The car drives Normal but the moment you press down on the accelerator the car won't go but give that sound in a plit second and you still at one place. The car can't kick down and fly fast as it used to be. For this reason I can't do over taking. Can someone help.
