    Geezum this truck, talk about a needy little vehicle lol I’m experiencing a very loud squeak which seems to come from behind the cowl? When I lift up the steering wheel it creeks been under the wheel and it’s not coming from the wheel but it seems to be coming from a bracket higher up. Goes away when hot but when it’s cold forget it.. any tips on removing the cowl? And anybody have any pictures of behind the cowl? I’m thinking there is a bracket that is threaded behind their that is squeaking away.. may have to add a ribber bushing or something. Should I have gotten a Honda Ridgeline?

    If you are asking, if you should’ve got a Ridgeline then yes you bought the wrong truck
