I saw your video with the car squeeling as you accelerated, mine has the same problem. I was curious what yours was and how much it cost?

Good morning,

All noises are not the same. Even though it sounds the same, it may not be the same.

Can you upload a video to this post of the noise so I can hear what you hear?

9 times out of 10 it will be the serpentine belt which should cost about $25.00 here is a guide to help walk you through and instructions in the diagrams below for your car:

Good morning again,

I could hear it but very low.

I would have your brakes checked. Pads have warnings or squealers on them to make this type of noise when the pads get low in material.

It may just mean you need your brake pads replaced.

This is the start up, it’s not the brakes, only when I hit the pedal.

Okay, thanks.

This could be the drive belt. There is a tensioner that keeps the belt tight. It is common for wearing out and the belt tension is not correct allowing this type of noise.

I would replace the drive belt and the tensioner.
