Default High pitched squeal

Anyone notice a high pitched squeal while making a sharp turn with the wheel locked? I've noticed it every so often while making u-turns. I think the sound is coming from the left front wheel.

Sounds like a power steering belt.

It sounds more like metal rubbing than a belt. However, I hope I'm wrong and you're right. A belt is easy to fix.

sounds like the front end needs to be inspected.

Are you sure it's not an overzealous driver?
