Jeep Compass making squeaking noise when turning

2007 Jeep Compass 4WD 2.4 82,000 miles When going over bumps, we hear these noises. But also lately when making turns (or even turning the steering wheel in a park) it makes a squeaking noise. I've been looking it up, and it seems like it could be the Struts, shocks or loose steering drive belt? Has this happened to anyone else?

I hit a median while turning left. Why does my vehicle make a loud squeaking noise when I turn the steering wheel or when I hit a bump?

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.

Rear end squeaks

rear end of what?
the whole car?
sure, you need help a live person, nobody hear can find noises.
it must be heard by the mechanic.

makes noise, moving only,
only bumps, or turns?
only in gear,
only accerlating
only deacelerating.
only in some gears.
only in 4wd? or 2wd?
only coasting,
only coasting out of gear.
see, that takes a skilled mech to do all that and 10x more. to find
the SOURCE of said noise.

Grinding noise....sounds like metal

Check the disk brake pads. At slower speeds you can hear them squeak because there is less wind and road noise. The other possibility could be a bad u joint at the ends of the axle half shafts on the front differential. Check both. I really doubt it is the transfer case. You transfer case is engaged all the time. The axle is locked and engaged when you flip the lever by a vacuum motor on the axle shaft on the differential.

I'm hearing a load bearing noise from the engine, I thought it was my water pump, but it's not

i had a problem with my compass when it was new. at first there was a nice kinda high pitched sound coming from the engine compartment. it was not loud so i ignored it. after a while the sound seemed to get louder and not even, kind of like a loud squeak. it will come and go. and yes it was the water pump. the dealer replaced it and no more noise after that.

I have a sqeaking noise from the front end. We thought it may be a u-joint, but the service center checked it out and could not find it. U-joints all checked out OK. Located in WI. The colder it gets, the...

Even if the joints appear to be OK, often they run dry and are rusted inside. Unfortunately you cannot see that unless you remove the axle and visually check them out.
You have universal joints in there? I thought they began using c/v joints right around 2000. Check that the brake pad sensors are not hitting the rotors as well that can make a squeaking noise.Before taking anything apart, try to determine which side the noise is on.
