Please get your car checked. You may have bent the Tie rods or the control arm and the Ball joint is making the Squeaking noise. Sway bar end links and Strut bearing will also make noise going over bumps.
wow first post ever for country, im GOBSMACKED !!!! wheel ?steering wheel or tire/wheel.?
hard to find, they are, all squeaks. first is to see if possible to do, no moving (big safety issue, yes) bounce the corners of car hard, by hand.? jack car up spin tires. by hand, lever them below off ground, to see of balls are shot. inspections here, look at every inch of suspenson and parts.
Brakes, i hope nothing breaks the brakes. The brakes all squeak this is normal try lightly pressing the brake pedal, gently while moving slow, squeaking now is 100% normal and harmless. (the pads act like Guitar strings) Use pad glue to halt it, or ignore it like me.... the pads have wear markers, they have this device that makes noise when pads get too thin, (look at em) bad wheel bearings. brake backing plate bent. caliper guide pins rusted. and lots of other things bad or just ok , old and making noise, like suspension "A" arm bushing rusty, or stable bar , same.
not sure what type vehicle we're talking about here, although you can lube up the rack and pinion or grease up your upper, if so equipped, and lower ball joints.
Possible crack somewhere in the wheel itself. I'd be checking that wheel with a magnifying glass if had to. Put the spare on hat position first and see if squeak is gone.
noises are a pig to diagnose from afar but i would get a can of spray silicon and spray one component at a time to find the noise...do it when dry and when you dont hear it guess what?.....
If WD-40 got on belt, and squeak went away for a while, it may just need a new belt. The humming noise sounds like a worn wheel bearing that should be checked and replaced if needed. If squeak goes away when you push slightly on brake pedal, it may be rotor on same side as wheel bearing making the noise due to slight shifting of rotor because of worn bearing.You can try swapping tires on front from one side to other to confirm it isn't tire problem as well. If noise shifts to other side, then it's a tire.
ball joints won't squeak like that; they make a popping noise when they're bad. it is very common for shocks to get water in them and start squeaking, and it's usually a horrible screeching squeak. The only way to get rid of the squeak is to change out the shocks. Hope this helped.
this is not in the stiring !
squeak going over bump and turning steering wheel after new brakes put on
