Default Weird sound!!

everytime i get off my car and shut my door i hear this squeak sound coming from my front area. I have no idea where the exact sound is coming from but it is very close to the front wheel area... any idea?? or should i just take advantage of the 100 point Nissan courtesy check up thingy...?? any suggestions will do, thank you all.

get some wd40 or some type of teflon lube spray and open your doors and spray the all the hinges and that should fix the noise if your hinges are all dried up unless you were in accident that caused your fender and door to rub wich i doubt the way you described it.

go to the auto parts store and find a teflon lubricant spray or white lithium grease aresol spray can and one of those two should last alot longer then wd40 but at least now you know what exactly is causing that noise

could be your struts and also could be suspension bushings that are rotten or dry it would be hard to diagnose over the internet you might have to take it to the dealer or a shop and have it fixed.

I know this sounds crazy but it worked for me. My car was squeaking every time I shut my door or drove over gravels or a bumpy road. Have someone press down on your hood while you shut your door. Every time someone would do this my car would not squeak. I found that when I adjused the two rubber pieces on the hood the squeaking stopped. When you raise your hood you will see two black rubber pieces that keeps your hood from rubbing. Once I adjusted these my squeaking completely stopped! Hopefully, your problem is as simple as mine was.
