Why does my front tire make a thumping sound?
– When making a left hand turn or a right hand turn at a slow turning speed, the thumping sound is very intense. – There are no foreign objects in the tires.

Why does my front wheel make a grinding noise when I drive?
Wheel bearings are what allow your tires to spin freely and smoothly while the vehicle is in motion. If the bearings begin to seize up or they get dirty and that prevents them from doing their job properly then you’re going to be experiencing grinding and knocking sounds while you’re driving.

Why does my car make noise when I turn a corner?
Alignment problems can also produce noise by causing tire scuffing. When the wheels are not aligned during a turn, a tire can shift sideways instead of rolling forward. Normal tire wear, when tire tread depth is very low, can lead to the same noise. Combined with excessive speed, this can cause tire squealing and possibly a loss of traction.
