Post Does anyone elses do that?

Sometimes when i get out of my car and take the key out of the ignition, my steering wheel will squeak or screech when it goes back into its dormat position. Is that normal?

The motor gears need lubrication. That and/or the motor inside where the brush contacts the armature is very dirty.

My steering wheel only squeeks in the cooler months. If it occurs again this year, I'll have it lubed.

Mine squeaks, just at random times. Most of the time it doesn't squeak, but once in a while it does.
