Q: Front end squeaking noise on a '95 Mustang GT

asked by on June 07, 2016

On my '95 Mustang GT, I've noticed that whenever I exit the car, it makes a squeaking sound. When I checked that out, it is coming from the front end. Are my struts or springs gone bad? If so, should I replace them both or only the bad one?
