Steering wheel shakes when I drive, especially at high speeds. Car is making a squeaking noise when I just turn steering wheel while idoling, or driving in slow traffic. Also, car makes squeaking noise, such as metal squeaking.

the steering wheel shaking is probably a bad tire or tires or the tires need to be re-balanced or you have a bent rim.the sqeaking sounds like ball joints to me based on the description you provided.i would check the ball joints,rims,tires and the balance.
