    You can first try checking the fluid level. The power steering reservoir is partially hidden. It is located under a flap near the base of the windshield (driver's side).

    Other causes of the squeak could be a dry steering column boot (rubber housing at bottom of steering column) or, less likely, upper control arms and tie rod ends.
