This thing squeaks like HELL. It is embarrassing to drive into a parking lot. It can easily be heard 50 ft away. Not affecting the drivability, just annoying and I must figure out how to get this fixed. I saw some other sites that say to replace the pitman arm. Not sure if that will work or not. But figure others are having this issue as well.

This sqeak/creak is very loud.
