A squeak may be heard from the base of the steering column while turning the steering wheel. The noise may be coming from the lower seal on the steering shaft. Lubrication of the seal will commonly correct this problem.

    Overnight everything is squeaking ,when I turn the wheel right to left also standing still just push car up and by rocking also produces a squeak I am being told that the ball joints are the cause.I have not not taken to dealer since my 100,000 mile warranty expired before the 100,000 since 6 years came first.I just replaced some front end products at a cost of over 800.00 and replaced all for tires.Just a note my radiator has blown off the top hose twice at idle and second time cost me a new radiator.

    Loud squeaking noise when turning the wheel either left or right. Doesn't just happen when it is cold outside. The car's been to the dealer twice for this issue and the squeak still comes back.

    In the early morning (especially during cold weather), I hear a squeaking noise coming from my steering wheel as I turn it. Not sure of the cause to this problem.

    My sounds like a rubbing noise. Have had it lubricated several times and it never solves the problem.
