Default Help- Squeaking sound from rear passenger Side

I've been having the problem for about 3 weeks now. Its getting annoying. I thought it was the brakes but i replaced them yesterday. but noise is still there.

I looked at my spring/shocks and it looks fine. A bit dirty but i cleaned it today when i washed my car.

More info about the noise. When i drive it makes a squeaking sound from the rear passenger side. when i cruise around 1-45mph. most time while slowing down to a stop.
it makes the sound in neutral.

What else can it be?

any info would help.

Henry

My 02 just started making the exact same noise you're talking about under the same circumstances. Anyone have any ideas?

Sounds like it's a suspension issue. I would take your car to the dealership and have them lube the rear passenger control arm. You may as well have them check the axel hub nut like dbzerk said too. Finally, double check that your spare tire is tightened down in the back. Good luck.

If you do a search on this issue it has been discussed a couple of times before. You might be able to find some potential fixes if my suggestions don't work.
