steering squeel

2002 blazer, when you are driving and turn the wheel at about 10mph to 20 mph it makes a tire squeeling noise. Anyideas?

Thanks Derek

Or checked tire pressure? Or ever rotated tires?

It probably is out of alignment. Since it's a 2002 it was either driven hard or not maintained properly. In my experience new vehicle alignments always lasted longer than 3 years.

Or changed your belt and checked the belt tensioner for that matter? I had a light squeal when the wheel was resting against the stops as it were. Swapping out the belt and making sure my tensioner was not bucking around like a happy puppy silenced it right up.
