TSB?

I've got a '16 escape with 17K on the meter and it squeaks in wet weather. Does anyone know if a TSB has been issued regarding the right rear suspension squeaks? It just so &%#&* annoying dealing with the dealership.. Any ideas? Will replacing the sway bar bushings and end link bushings solve the problem?

Swap the rear shock absorbers from side to side and see if the squeak moves.

Not sure any manufacturer would issue s aTSB for such squeaks, they will be a bush failing or tight shock absorber of some kind, a normal maintenance issue they would see it as.

They don't issue a recall for something like that and TSBs are followed "only" if you bring your vehicle in to complain about a problem that it addresses. Getting a TSB done just because there is one can be difficult.
