OK well i just got home from my friends and when i shut the driver side door, the drivers side- rear wheel squeeked. i was confused, so i went over and tugged a bit on my rear- drivers side wheel and it squeeked every time and felt very loose :(.... none of the other wheels made the noise or felt as loose... what could be my problem?
 
Many possibilities. If it felt loose when pushing/pulling the top of the tire in/out hard, it's probably an upper or lower arm bushing (or God forbid an upper knuckle bushing). If it happenes when you push/pull the side of the tire in/out hard, it's probably the trailing arm bushing or the toe control arm bushing or ball joint. If it happens doing both it could be a wheel bearing. Other possiblilities are stablizer link ball joint and shock absorber bushing. Move the wheel in/out both on the ground and off to help isolate (and jerk it hard).
