    If you think the dealer can easily duplicate the noise (and it's under warranty) then let them deal with it.
    Hi Top Fuel, I just contacted the dealer but they are closed due to the COVID-19, I will get it fixed when they open. Just noticed you are from Ohio, I worked there before and miss it so much!

    Nice. What part of Ohio did you work in?

    My car started squeaking about a month or two after I bought it, it just is what it is.

    Easy to solve, just tighten the serpentine belt or replace it.

    I'll have to call the dealership and ask if that's a warranty issues or not. If not, I'll tighten it myself. If it is covered by warranty then I want it on record.

    Doubtful, it'd take more time to call a dealer than just tighten it yourself. All you need is a 12mm anything. Unless it's rusted solid then you may have to loosen the 14mm/9/16" lower pivot nut. Changing the belt is pretty straight forward as well and pretty hard to screw up with only 3 or 4 pulleys, depending on whether you have ac or not.
