Rear squeak on curbs, smal bumps

I did a search, but didn't see anything identical-

My car has a new squeak. Sounds like an old door in a haunted house type squeak..it comes from the 'rear' of the car and sounds 'inside' or around the rear window area. Basically, when i turn into a driveway, or hit a bump-at slow speeds only- i hear this sound, again, a sound like an old door opening up. I hear no sounds at high speeds or rough roads. Only when slowly eeking into driveway areas or out of parking spots at accerlation points.

I recently had my recall done and noticed this, thats the only 'deduction' i have...any else have anything close to this?

I have a sound similar to that and it's my exhaust hitting something metal on that side of the car.

is your exhaust stock? i wonder if the recall adjustments caused this...

also, when do you hear the squeak? similar situations?
thanks for your input-
