I hear a loud squeak when turning above 80MPH or so. I hear it when changing lanes. I can't tell what it's coming from. Sounds like it might be ahead of me and possibly in the cabin or from the front tires. I bought the car from a dealer a few thousand miles ago and it had new tires and brakes.

Hi,

That is an odd one. When you are driving slower, do you ever notice a noise when turning? For example, do you notice a growling type of sound that changes pitch when turning?

The next time you hear it, see if the sound changes between turning left and right. Also, slightly touch the brake pedal to see if it changes.

Let me know.
