The front wheels squeak as though they need a grease job. It is not the sound of brakes. I didn't notice any grease fittings. Is this an expensive repair?

If no grease fittings are present, it most likly means the lower ball joints and or tie rod ends are in need of replacement, factory parts have no fittings. Have these parts checked quickly!
