Default Other strange noises!

Has anyone heard their power steering on a Mazda 3 s or i ?
Mine seems to be VERY loud, louder than normal on the outside of the car. And I have noticed that people can hear it outside and stare lol.. but its just alot of squeaking as I turn the wheels etc... but pretty loud. I was thinking of taking it in to the dealership, but almost dont want to because i hate getting their rental cars... also i figured if there is a problem with it, it will just go out and then i can take it to the dealership considering it is still under warranty.

I also hear loud brakes, not a squeaking noise, but a rubbing noise. I am pretty sure the pads and rotors are alright...

Anyone heard any noises? That seem abnormal with their Mazda 3 s , i or hatchback?
Let me know, thanks... maybe I can figure out if this is normal or not from other people's experiences and then figure out what I need to do after that..!

power steering shouldnt make a squeaking noise..it sounds like you might have a suspension issue if you have a squeaking noise when cutting the wheel back and forth

check the power steering and braking fluid, you might just be low
