Suspension squeaky as hell??

Drove my wife's 2015 RDX with 48k miles this AM. The suspension is squeaky as all hell at low speeds (couldn't tell at high speeds). Most notably I park in a parking garage and every left turn I made there was a terrible shriek, and there were softer shrieks going straight over speed bumps. I'll take the car in soon, but what is this? Wheel bearing? Struts gone bad? Ball joints? Seems awfully early to have to replace suspension components, no??

Exact same problem with my wife's 2015 RDX. Every left turn we would hear a loud squeak and softer squeaks on small bumps. Brought it to the dealer about a month ago, and they replaced the bushings and dampers on the suspension. That fix eliminated the squeaks. They replaced both the front brakes too, not sure if it was related to the squeaks but no more annoying squeaks. Take it to the dealer.

Thanks. I'm dropping it off this afternoon, hope the loaner they give me is something sweet.

There is a TSB on suspension noise for defective rear struts. I got mine replaced under warranty. Not sure if it applies to you. BTW I just noticed that it’s an issue with both of your wives 2015 models .
