No reason they should be going bad at 45k. I wouldnt worry about a squeak, its a clunk that is the tell tail.
When was the last time it was washed? Sometimes when things get dirty they make noise...like brakes.

It get washed at least once a week 
the squeak happens randomly and I can cause it by just cutting the wheel back and forth at a stand still? No clunks - I do get an occasional squeak from the engine - sounds like a belt? Only when letting out clutch in first ? Any thoughts

I had more of a creak than a squeak. Turned out to be a bad right front ball joint, replaced under CPO

This is my everyday driver averaging 1500 a month so far - about to go on a 1000 mile round trip tomorrow - if there was more time in a day I would probably log more miles - but to your point - don't think driving to little is the problem - and I enjoy the sarcasm - thanks

About 7-8 years now, if you're experiencing squeak going over bumps (or other immediate transfer of weight), more pronounced going over speed bumps, etc..., I'd check out the lube of a sway bar, perhaps it has just run its course. Depending on the bushings (and perhaps other places), it could just be a simple lube, and everything would be back to normal.
Good luck! Let us know what you find.
