I would check top shock mounts a siezed bearing in the mount will make springs judder in there seats also look at upper and lower balljoints and stabilizer mounting rubbers and the drop links.Have the vehicle idling in neutral and the parking brake engaged standing on flat on a level surface as the weight of the vehicle puts load on the suspension its better to find the problem like that.Get someone to turn the steering full lock both ways while you pin point the noise also grab the spring to feel for any vibration as the noise appear

CV joints yes look at the rubber boots for damage. You can get a replacement boot but if you do remove all the old grease to remove any dirt that is cousing your problem.

MOST LIKELY THE FRONT AND REAR SWAY BAR RUBBER BUSHINGS ARE THE SOURCE OF THE PROBLEM, ALSO THE FRONT LOWER STRUTS CAN BE NOISY AS WELL.

2005 stratus squeaks in front end over bumps and car shakes when slowing from speeds of 35mph and over

The noise would usually be the strut or the control arm bushings. The vibration could also be the component making the noise, or warped brake rotors.

VW 2001 Passet- Squeaks very badly over bumps in

I don't.
I have spent many hours chasing elusive car noises over the last four decades, mostly with success.
Most of those noises were troublesome because they were intermittent and could not be duplicated in the workshop.

I think one of the most difficult to trace was the most horrible noisy vibration that would seem to run right through the car sometimes. It was as if some serious mechanical disaster was happening. The cause when I found it (by accident) was a front mudguard that rested on the front indicator lamp instead of having a small clearance between them.

When a noise can be duplicated in the workshop by bouncing or rocking, with the aid of a mechanics stethoscope and sensitive fingers, locating the general area of a squeak is a mere formality though pinpointing can take a little longer.
Track rod ends and ball joints can cause very loud squeaks as can some of the rubber bushes.

Replacing parts in the vague hope of curing a noise is expensive desperation. Unless you gave specific instructions to have those items replaced your money should be refunded. I suggest you change your repairer as any repairer that replaces stuff without prior justification shouldn't be in business.

Squeakfrontend

Squeaky when you go over bumps or on turning? If it only squeaks when you turn it is probably ball joints or tie rod ends and if it is when you go over bumps it could be your rubber bushings for your control arms.

My 1989 chevrolet c1500 is making squeaky noises when i go on bumps even small ones and i noticed its made on the fron left side an i also noticed it makes a similar squeaky noise when i steer the steering...

Hello. Im replying on my phone, sorry if this is short. Its most likely your shocks. You can find out if you stand on your front bumper and jump up and down and see if it makes the same noise. If it does then its your shocks. You can get shocks anywhere. Online would be most recommended. It may take a while to get an aplication for your truck locally. Hope this helps!

Engine and front end vibrates on right turns on 2003 stratus

that is likely one of the constant velocity joints or the rubber boot on it. quick test is to turn slowly to the right in an empty parking lot and listen for a clicking sound. repeat in a slow left hand turn.

Creaking noise in front end 1997 explorer

Sounds like it is your CV axles.  Turn the wheel one direction, right or left, and check just behind the wheels to see if your CV boot is cracked or ripped (the boot is a black, rubber accordion looking thing).  If it is cracked or ripped, I would say that is definitely the problem.
