Default Suspension squeaking at around 11k miles??

Hi all,

I have a 2008 GT with about 10,800 miles on it. The last couple weeks when driving slowly I've been hearing a squeaking at times when turning or going over small bumps.

A couple days ago I took the car to the tire shop to have my winter tires put on and in their inspection they say the recommend replacing the ball joints (both lower-front) and the tie rod ends (both left and right inner), and an alignment. WTF? Isn't it a bit early on my car for that kind of thing? Anyone else have these issues this early? Or are they trying to bilk me? Thanks.

That sounds too early for these kinds of parts. If they are bad you should check out the warranty through Ford.
