Why is my Kia Picanto squeaking when I turn?

I recently noticed a strange squeaking noise coming from my Kia Picanto whenever I turn, especially at low speeds. It's quite annoying and I'm worried that it might be a sign of a bigger issue. What could be causing this and how can I fix it?

Hi Maria, the most common reason for squeaking noises when turning is worn out tie rods or steering components. I would recommend getting your car checked by a mechanic to identify the exact cause and get it fixed before it becomes a bigger problem.

Hey Maria, it could also be a sign of low power steering fluid. Check your fluid levels and top up if necessary. If the squeaking persists, it's best to have a professional investigate further.

Hi Maria, another potential cause could be worn out brake pads. If you notice the squeaking noise gets louder when you apply the brakes, it's likely the pads need to be replaced. Again, it's best to have a mechanic take a look at it for an accurate diagnosis.
