Default Power steering noise

Hi everyone I do have a 2013 ES350, I have some issues with my steering when turning it produces a squeaky noise. Do we have a power steering dip stick or reservoir on our car to measure the power steering fluid? I thought it was a low poser steering fluid but I can not find a dip stick or reservoir. Thank you

Your 2013 ES350 has electric power steering so no fluid to check. Is the squeak coming from the steering column inside the car or from the steering linkage under the car? More details on the noise might help narrow down the issue (happens all the time or part time, turning left, right or both, stopped or moving, warm or cold temperatures, etc)

Thank you for the reply. It is coming from the inside, every time I turn the steering wheel. it just feel weird. Do you have any idea if what is wrong with it?

Here is an older discussion on a similar issue. Sounds like a couple of possibilities, either the clockspring or a rubber boot on the steering column. Hope it helps.
