Squeaky minilite floors

Any one else have squeaky floors. Our 2019 has and we can even feel where two peices of wood come together.
With one foot on each side of the squeak we can feel the two boards going up and down indefinitely.Its suppose to be tongue and groove.
Any one else have this?

I haven't heard of it before without water intrusion.

That's definitely something to have the dealer take care of. If it does flex both pieces should flex together.

Yes, mine does. The first day I had it home I sent an email to the dealership asking about the creaking area(s) and where I can feel the two boards as you describe. This is my first Rockwood and didn't know if it was normal or a problem. They told me that, if it is around the heating ductwork I might be feeling where the flooring is cut for the ductwork and one area, right in front of the kitchen sink, is where the heater is located. But for the other areas, no rhyme or reason that I can see. Just back from our second trip, I told them that I am going to put painters tape around the suspect areas and send them photos; they are going to have a technician look at them and let me know. I am scheduled for on-site service - awesome option for them to come to my house for minor work. I might have to bring it in once they see the pictures, but I wanted the issue documented in writing right away which is why I sent the email. You might want to do that regardless of whether or not you decide to bring it in. Please post what you find out.... thanks!

UPDATE: I put the painters tape at every area on the floor that felt or sounded odd to me and emailed it to the dealership. They asked me to bring it it, which I did. The service technician inspected and felt that it was normal but they sent the photos to the manufacturer for direction. Regardless of the outcome, that's really what I wanted, good documentation of existing conditions in case down the road I have an issue relating to one of those areas that requires repair.
