Default 03 Dodge Durango

hey all, i have an 03 durano slt with a 4.7L V8. it has 86,000 on the odometer and overall is a nice ride. lately i have been having some issues with it, as far as driving at low speeds(parking lots, my neighborhood, etc) and with low speed turns. it makes a noise that sounds like squeaking. i was told that it could be a power steering issue, but the fluid color and levels are what it should be. any input would be appreciated on what this issue could be.

A squeaky noise while turning could be a cv axle, or anything without enough grease

hey, thanks for getting back to me. the last time i was at the dealership, they replaced the cv axel and the ball joints, twice, as the issue was never resolved the first time around. im going to have the truck looked at by a family friend and if the issue is the axel, im going to have it out with them again.

Ya it could be even tie rods needing greased up. There is a sticky about it in the DIY section I believe. My power steering pump has a bit of a whine to it and its full with new fluid so it could just be that
