Default RXV front end squeaks

Every Time I turn my steering wheel on an uneven surface, it squeaks. Is the fix as simple as WD40 or how can I get this noise fixed? What is causing it?

Are you sure it's the wheel? Maybe something in the front end?

It’s definitely in the suspension somewhere. I’ve tightened all the bolts, but cannot find where it is coming from

Check the lower control arm bushings where they attach to the struts. Seem to be a weak spot. I've replaced them on every RXV I've had. I've also had a squeak come from the struts themselves.
