I had all the shocks replaced about a month ago and recently i noticed there is a squealing noise (not too loud) when i turn right only. I took it to a mechanic and he said whoever installed the shocks messed up the front right one and the noise is coming from the black rubber piece on top of the shock (upper ball joint maybe?) He said its not dangerous but just makes a sound.

I just want to know more about the problem/issue. Im broke so might not fix it right away.

 

1. No such thing as an upper ball joint.
2. It's likely the "OUT" stamp on the upper spring perch not correctly aligned and is rubbing.
3. Whoever installed it, take it back to them.

 

ahh i see, thanks!
