2007 Jeep Compass Squeak When Making Turn

No it's not from the steering wheel when turning stationary.

It's when the wheels are turning, but only when I turn left.

I checked my CV joints and they are good, looked at the backing plate and all is well. I replaced the entire front end (struts, LCA, ball joints, stabilizer links, etc), and that's all good and did a computerized alignment. I even replaced everything in the rear end. It's like a new car.

Even my friend who did the alignment did not have a clue.

Only thing that leaves is the wheel bearings. But there is no rumbling noises or wheel fatigue.

The thing drives beautifully too.

Can someone give me some insight? Please.

What kind of squeak? And does it sound different depending on if you turn left or right?

I imagine it had pressed in sealed bearing unit. Maybe a bolt it.

Left turn put loads on the right side bearings. Are you sure the noise is from the left side?
