Most cars make a decent amount of noise, but when you notice these kinds of sounds, it’s time to take your vehicle into the dealership for a checkup.

Without a working serpentine belt, many of your car’s systems, such as power steering, may fail. This type of squealing sound is most often from a worn out or misaligned belt (though, not always the serpentine) and calls for a trip to your dealership before the belt breaks down completely.
