Q: A grinding sounds occurs when the car turns left
When turning left my car emits a soft grinding sound, that appears to be coming from the front and back right wheel wells.
the car doesn't do a hard correct one way or another upon wheel release and the resistance on the turn isn't different on one side or the other.
recently had power steering and shocks and struts replaced. Sound was definitely there before shocks and struts but not sure about power steering.
My car has 248000 miles.
My car has an automatic transmission.
