Creaking in MacBook Pro Max 16

I have only had my machine a little while and I am noticing that the chassis creaks at even the slightest touch. Maybe moving my hand near the track pad or even moving it slightly on my lap. I know.....first world problems. Has anyone else noticed this or remedied it? I was thinking of opening it up and checking but will that void my warranty? Thanks all.

Brand New MacBook Creaking So about a week ago I purchased a brand new MacBook Pro M1 and recently I have noticed when I move it while its open in makes creaking noises within the keyboard area or hinge or trackpad. It's not like it keeps doing it over and over in the same spot but instead across the whole device making it random and un coordinated like throwing a dart blind folded. It isn't affecting the performance of the computer though the noises that it makes are pretty annoying for someone like me whose ears are always on and alert all the time. I would think that maybe this is either a manufacturing defect or something is loose across the whole build but I came here to here others perspectives and if anyone else shares my problem.

macbook air 2019 creaking noise. I have the latest MacBook Air (2019) and I bought it almost 3 weeks ago...Sometimes when I touch it or add some pressure on it I hear a little creaking noise right and top of the laptop...Is it something that I should worry about and how can I fix it? I consider that maybe a screw makes this noise but I'm not sure.
