Before changing the whole Power steering pump, check power steering fluid.

Check the power steering fluid. It sounds like it is low. If that's not it, your power steering pump is probably going bad.

Check the power steering fluid. You may only need to add fluid. If thats not it, the change out the pump.

Check your p/s fluid level, if it's low you probably have a leak somewhere. the constant lack of fluid can damage the pump over time. If that's the case, have the leak repaired and replace the pump. proper "on-time" maintence is the key for keeping a vehicle in good condition!!

sounds like low power steering fluid or faulty steering pump.

I also have a 2013 Chev Matiz that makes a squeaking noise when I turn the Wheel at low speeds. It doesn´t have capability steerage, so, any thought what the problema is? It basically has 4000 miles!!!

My mother in law had this noise and her engine bolts had broke and the engine was laying on the " A Frame" when it broke it caused the steering wheel to go full right and she could'nt drive it any more.Very dangerous if thats your problem.

why don't you actually check your fluids before tring to change the pump out.
Usually when the steering makes a noise it means the fluid is low

Why don't you see if there's power steering fluid in it first ?
