squeaky noise when turning the car

hipnotic · 02-02-2009, 10:39 PM

hey guys,

I have a question whenever i turn my car to the right i hear squeaking coming from below the car or at the front of the wheels i am not sure though. I am not breaking while i am turning. Also, i am driving like 2-3 mph when i hear this squeaky noise with my windows rolled down. Do you know what is causing this? I know i should take it to the dealer, but are they just going to oil a particular area to prevent the squeaking or do you guys know exactly where this squeaky noise is coming from.

I'm sure it happens when you are going straight and not always turning you car. The noise is coming from the brake sensors. It's a known problem in our cars. Go check your car with the dealer to see if they can replace or adjust the sensors.

so it will not have any effect on the car? It only squeaks for like 5 seconds the most and then it goes away. I notice it mostly when i turn not that much when driving straight. Is it okay to drive like this or should i take it to the dealer?
