Strangely this is a known issue. I fixed my squeaking by spraying the gap behind the steering wheel and the the dash with Jigaloo, which is a dry silicone lubricant. Spray it just before you start driving.
take it back to the guy who did the job and have him adjust the drive belt for the alternator and power steering as that will be the most likely cause of the squealing . If it is an automatic have the fluid level checked . Have the fault codes read and have him fix any sensor problems.
Your serpentine belt tensioner may be bad,not holding enough tensioner and not letting your alternator keep a charge on your battery,get some one to sit in your vehicle,open hood,have them start it while you watch the belts turn and have them rev the engine up to see if the belt turns loosely.another thing to look at is the A.C.compressor locking up .Power steering pump could be locking up,just check it out while it's running and see.
Yes its risky. Dont drive with that noise from clock spring.Its indication of its failure. I believe this is the "clockspring" -- the electrical cable inside the steering column that connects your steering-wheel-mounted electrical controls to the rest of the car. ("Controls" used be just the horn.) The cable wraps around the steering column so it can turn with the steering wheel. Sometimes it starts to rub and squeak.
If WD-40 got on belt, and squeak went away for a while, it may just need a new belt. The humming noise sounds like a worn wheel bearing that should be checked and replaced if needed. If squeak goes away when you push slightly on brake pedal, it may be rotor on same side as wheel bearing making the noise due to slight shifting of rotor because of worn bearing.You can try swapping tires on front from one side to other to confirm it isn't tire problem as well. If noise shifts to other side, then it's a tire.
the squeak could be brakes or wheel hub/bearing. most likely it is the bearing and hub assembly, i would not drive it , take it to you local service station and have then replace or repair the hub assy.
hi check your power steering belts not slipping when its as when the your driving your kia and it is hardly moving and you turn the steering it put more strain on the belt as it warms up it may not be as noticeable the noise is coming from the front of the car and not the steering wheel itself i presume if its coming from the steering wheel that totally differnt just let me know yates210456
