Tesla Service replaced LOWER LATERAL LINK FRONT 1044341-00-D x 2, FR LWR COMP LINK ASSY LH 1044354-00-A and FR LWR COMP LINK ASSY RH 1044359-00-A.
Service desk attributed the problem to cold weather exposure and suggested I keep the car in a garage which I don't buy since I have the car in North Carolina and I don't hear about these falling apart in colder areas.

Replaced control arms at 26,000 miles under warranty but now I have 135,000 the "creeking" sound is back. I'm not going to replace it yet, but its making that sound again.
