hey guys its been a while but recently ive been hearing a noise in the front of my 2010 kk in the morning within the first 100 feet after it sits all night i brought it to the dealer and they said they couldnt find anything and that it was probably oxidation and that when i start moving it jars whatever it is loose and free's it up again......just so you know it happens no matter whats the terrain (smooth or rough road) doesnt matter the speed or the temp and its when im NOT pressing the breaks.....its literally a one second long noise like a rub or gentle crunch then its gone until the next morning....any ideas? should i bring it to the dealer and ask them to go through it more in depth? im really anal about noises and itll bother me until i know what it is!!!!

thanks guys!

The same thing happens to me after the jeep sits for a long period of time. For me, it usually happens right after the first turn of the wheel.

ive been doing hours of research and it looks like to me its the abs system doing a self check....after the truck has sat for a certain period of time...havent found any jeep guys online mention it but people with cars ranging from 2010 toyota tundras to 2008 smart cars have been online posting exactly my issue to a T sooo i think ill sleep better now lol.

please let me know if you think this isnt correct!

Ill listen to mine and see if it happens, i dont think it does, but my AT Tires probably mask the noise anyway

Mine does it too, and it is that ABS engaging. It's a self-test and there's nothing you can do about it. The dealer has looked at mine, and said it's normal...basically deal with it.
