Default rear wheel squeaks

Hello!

The car's rear wheel squeaks when the car is in motion. It stopped squeaking at first but then it got worse as it goes on. From my experience it could be the rear wheel bearing? I hope it is not expensive to replace.

Is there anything else besides wheel bearing??? rear wheel brake pad going bald?? Help meeeeeeeeeee

Does it continue squeaking when you brake?

Put the car in park and push it forward a litle so the car moves, if it's the rear pads they will squeak

Your rear suspension bushings may be starting to go bad homie.

Okay so i test drove it again and the car does make noises on the driver's rear when i brake... any clue? I rather have this done by myself rather than taking it to the shop where they charge me an arm and a leg.
