2011 Explorer Hgh Pitched Squeal

Posted this on iRV2, but thought I'd try here also. Picked up our first class A today and toaded our 2011 Explorer home. The Explorer towed great behind the Allegro 36LA but when we got home and went beck to unhook, by wife mentioned she could hear a Hgh Pitched Squeal coming from the Explorer. Being hard of hearing I really had trouble picking it up, but it was there. The Explorer is towed with the ignition switch in Aux. The squeal went away when the car was put in park and the ignition turned off.
Any ideas for the experts out there???
Thanks

Flat Towing a 2011 Explorer

Moving to a class A and wondering about the tow behind. Is anyone flat towing a 2011 or newer Explorer? According to the guide, it can be towed 4 down. But, wondering if anyone can tell me how well it tows and if there is anything special I need to know about towing this vehicle.
Thanks

RE: axle/hubs/brakes service

Just had it done on our Cougar. Labor rate was $75/hour. Repacked bearings, replaced 4 seals, and replaced 1 bearing that was going bad. Total cost $211.

RE: Keystone cougar

I have a 318SAB. Just got back from taking it to Alaska (10000 miles towing). After about 25000 miles towing, only problems have been one wiring connection that came loose and had to be replaced. And, the shower has a small leak (sometimes) that I have not been able to find. No problems on the last trip, even with the rough roads. Single A/C is underpowered for 100 degree weather though and I would go with a larger unit or 2 if they have that option available. Good bang for the buck.

RE: Hyder/Stewart

Recommend Bear River RV Park. It is located to the left just as you enter Stewart. We are there now. Full hook up, WiFi, & Cable Even have grass between the sites, which our dogs really appreciate. From what we have seen here, this is the best one around. Fish will not show up until first of August, so right now there is only an infrequent bear coming to see if the fish are there yet. We saw no bear during our stay.
