I am having a squeaking noise coming from the tire area. I am trying to grease the fittings. Does someone have the location of the grease fittings?

The car listed above is an XL model.

These cars do not have any grease fittings, what kind of noise are you hearing? Can you give us details? Please upload pictures or videos of the problem so we can see what's going on.

After listening and looking, I found a "Grease Fitting" on the car's front passenger side steering rod. I was not told that my mother in-laws' car had the steering rod replaced. A friend had a grease gun and filled it. The squeaking noise went away.

Thanks for getting back to me, I didn't think these cars had grease fittings. Sorry about that. I am glad you got the problem fixed.
