MY CAR IS MAKING A SQUEAKING SOUND?

I HAVE A 1994 HONDA ACCORD LX THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE BY THE TIRE IS MAKING A SQUEAKING/CREAKING SOUND WHEN I GO OVER BUMPS OR TURN.DOES ANYBODY HAVE ANY IDEA WHAT THIS IS???I PAID SOMEBODY TO SUPPOSEDLY CHANGE THE STRUT AND CV JOINT BUT ITS STILL MAKING THAT SOUND IT STOPPED ONE DAY AND STARTED BACK UP.

I would suspect you have a front anti-roll bar bushing or anti-roll bar end link issue. That's the easy stuff. There's an outside chance the inner or outer tie-rod on the right side could be dried out and need replacing with a TRW or Moog grease-able part. There is also a good chance your lower A arm bushings should be inspected along with the lower ball joint.

the ball joint is bad
I assume you had the work done at a reputable repair facility which furnished you with a receipt as well as a warranty. If so, take it back and have a technician go for a test drive and inspect it. It could be the strut mounts, brakes, wheel bearings, control arm bushing etc..
power steering arm, it's the thing that's next to the cv joint, if it's defective you can see it, it'll be a long stick on left and right side next to cv joint, that would make that kind of sound, mostly when your turning



don't pay somebody to fix it, take it to the shop
