Lexus GS350 suspension squeak noise possibly related to alignment wear and early water pump failure on Lexus GS350

Problem overview

Some Lexus GS350 owners report experiencing squeaking noises in the suspension, which may be attributed to worn-out suspension components such as bushings, control arms, or ball joints. Additionally, some owners note that alignment wear can contribute to these noises, causing uneven tire wear and putting extra stress on suspension parts. Others have found that issues with the brake system, such as worn-out brake pads or sticky calipers, can also lead to squeaking, particularly during light braking. However, it is important to clarify that early water pump failure is generally not associated with suspension noises in the Lexus GS350, as such issues typically present as coolant leaks or engine overheating. To address these concerns, it is advisable for owners to inspect suspension components, check for alignment wear, and evaluate the brake system.
