Whenever I turn my wheel, I hear a nice long SQUEEEEEEEEK during the action. I was told this is bad ball joints. I want to make sure before I take the time to replace them and still have the problem occur.

Any help is appriciated.

Has your car been sitting for a while? Once I started driving mine it did that, but now it works/sounds fine...

Rack bushings is another thought.........how is it on cold mornings?

bad struts can cause that too, but it was the ball joints in mine

It's a daily driver, is does it no matter the weather, or how long I've been driving. It does make the noise mostly when I turn the wheel to the right (passenger's side), maybe that will help...?

Last time I had the same thing (squeek on turning) the steering rack was replaced. Sounds like it could be from several different sources though.

Found the problem! Twas the Tie Rod! Got it fixed now that car's as good as new... except for the paint chips...
