Common Causes of Car Squealing at Turns

To determine the cause of car squeals when turning on Mississauga and Vaughan roads, it can be helpful to take note of the type of squeal you're hearing. Different noises can indicate the source of the issue. Here are some of the more typical squealing sounds and what they might mean:

  • A creaking-like squeal can be a sign of worn-out or damaged suspension joints.
  • A squeal that sounds like a whine at low speeds may be caused by a faulty power steering pump.
  • Squeals that are screeches present at normal speeds could be an indicator of a power steering problem. You may just need power steering fluid, or a more extensive repair could be called for.
  • A squeal that gets louder as time goes by may be the result of an issue with a ball joint.
  • Oftentimes, tires squeal when turning due to low tire pressure, uneven tread wear, or misaligned wheels. The risk of experiencing any of these problems can be minimized by scheduling regular tire rotations and wheel alignments.
