do your cargo covers squeak with every bump you hit?

it makes this annoying baby-duck-ish squeak everytime i hit any kind of medium bump, or take a turn, etc.

any way to cure this? I hate leaving it uncovered. thanks!

Try sticking some really thin felt on the side mounting brackets. Mine used to squeak too, until I gave it away.

its such an annoyingly poor design.

ill try that out --- anyone else?

I got mine used but it has felt on the ends that go into brackets. I guess the previous owner got fed up too.

apparently toyota knows this too, because mine has the felt on the tip and it came like that when i bought it. This seems like an easy fix. BTW my hood squeaks against the rubber stopper on the corner, does anyone else have the problem?

lee

how would you ever hear that while driving?

under low speed, going over small bumps

lee

Does it sound like "AFLAC!!!"?

i actually shoved some kleenex around the nubs and that took care of it. so im gonna go get that fabric and throw it on, that really will cure it.

thanks guys!
