The car squeaks loudly when it moves. It is especially noticeable when going slowly. Going over speed bumps makes it groan even more. When I turn the steering wheel before the car moves much (as when preparing to turn a corner), the car also squeaks. The sound of this squeaking is like an unoiled door on a very old car.
A mechanic worked on it a year ago and at that time he said it was the bushings. He charged close to $700 and three months later the squeaking was back.
