Front Suspension Creaking

[RichardSlay]

I've got a 2016 Sport with about 124K miles on it. The front suspension has been creaking so I replaced the lower control arms on both sides which included new ball joints. The creaking is not as bad now but hasn't gone away. I mainly hear it when the wheels are turned (but not while turning the wheel) and I hit a small bump but it also happens on smooth surfaces when braking or accelerating. Could it be the struts need to be replaced? Not sure what else it could be.

Strut mounts are known to make noise when they start to go bad, but they usually make noise when you are turning the wheel.
Also, check the sway bar links.

These cars are money pits!
