“I have a '1998 Ford zx2. It's really making squeaking sound since around 2 years ago, I am sure that this is not an usual squeaking sound you imagine. I had my car inspected at Ford dealership and other car repair center. Before inspection, every mechanician guaranteed he could fix it. But after looking at my car, they just wondering why, and they gave up, and I just should paid.
