Welcome to the forum!
Have a look at the attached bulletin. This is the Canadian version, but there is a US version...probably posted somewhere on the forum.
When you look at the title initially, it doesn't sound like your issue, but read the top of Page 3, section 1 and the first bullet. Some have complained about the valve being noisy, so this might be your issue and the bulletin would still apply to your vehicle.
