When I start my car it makes a loud squeeling noise. My belts are tensioned right, my starter is fairly new, so could the alternator be a problem, because thats where it sound like its coming from.

It could be but alternators usually whine if anything

Put something long & hard on it like a hammer and put your ear on it, youll hear where its coming from

well drive around and if you start to have problems like abs light (or airbag light i can't remember) and your headunit/cdplayer turns off and on randomly well then it prolly is your alternator...i dunno this is what happen to me so...
