Any idea what to check for what sounds like front wheel squeak on a
2002 chrysler Town and country minivan. Van has 48000 miles. Does not
appear to be brake related, ie, does not change when applying brakes.
If vehicle is in motion, it squeaks. At a stop sign, squeak stops.

leads me to believe it is 1) not a belt squeak and 2) not a brake
squeak.

Wheel bearings? CV joint? Any other suggestions on what to check?

thanks.

Stuck brake caliper. Put it up on the lift and rotate wheels.

c v joints maybe, would be unusual to have a problem this early - unless
a boot has gone to pot.

rubber mounted suspension parts can squeak under the right condition

check the wheels for looseness or brake dragging..
