Guys, if anyone still having this clunky issue, have your dealer grease the ebrake assembly (left and right hub internal parts) and tighten up the cable. That'll do it. Mine went away once they did that.

Just in at the dealer for this and they said there is a TSIB on the rear parking brake causing this clunk/squeak. I can't find a link to it.

To remove and regrease they want $350! I wish I tried the push method as I never use that brake. Maybe the cable was loose. It can't be that hard to regrease it yourself.

Funny that you posted this today. I just posted under Rattle and am having the same problem. However, I have used the parking brake a few times, but not always. I mentioned that the brake could be the problem. I will let you all know what the dealer tells me. Brought the car to dealer today (car is less than 2 weeks old). They just called me and told me they need to keep the car overnight.

I'm having the same issue, I think.

I have to know if the noise is suspension related or parking brake cable related.

I don't understand how this is acceptable on a brand new car! that's $40k!!! It's embarrassing, annoying and so inconvenient!!! back to dealership for service. NOT HAPPY!
