#21896, "hit bumps and hear squeaking"


          

at slow speeds if I hit small bumps I hear an annoying squeaking sound....I don't know what it is???? If u push or move the car u can hear the noise so I'm thinkin the shocks or something.....Also if I turn the wheel it will do and I'm at a slow slow speed I still think its the shocks or something.....THANKS FOR ANY HELP

that could also be the ball joints - which are a recall item. If you haven't taken it in for the recall - DO IT NOW!!! If you aren't sure if the recall was performed, they can check it by the VIN. Whether you were the first owner or not.

I had the same exact symptoms - nasty squeak while turning or going over bumps only at slow speeds. I ended up taking it in for the recall and that fixed the problem.

what do you mean? If what you are implying is that you think your car is too old for the recall, you are wrong. My car is a 96 ESI and I took it in for the recall early last year.

A recall is a recall, it needs to get done. Don't let them tell you that it just needs to be lubed or something - GET IT REPLACED. Remember, the service dept isn't making any money on recall work, so they may need a little coercion to do it.

the recall was for all 95-99 eclipses/talons.

The search function here works wonders, actually i just used it to make sure I was correct. Try to get in the habit of searching for something before asking the question - most likely any issue you have will have already been covered in the years this site has been active.

I don't mean to be a dick about it, but this has been covered here extensively.

Good luck man, remember, don't let them tell you the ball joints are ok. If the recall hasn't been performed, MAKE them do it.

My suspension squeaks cause of the polyurethane bushings on the ingalls camber kits.
