Grinding Noise when Turning

If I make a sharp left I can hear a grinding noise coming from my passenger front. Im not sure what it is. I haven't had time to pull the wheel off to look but I'm thinking its a bad axle shaft. Any thoughts

I'm having the same issue when I make sharp, low speed turns. Like in parking lots or out of driveways. Seems to happen more often turning left than right. What was the issue with yours??

I got the same thing, going to check it out in a few hours. Thinking either a bad axle or something with the brakes.

Mine doesn't happen all the time, its very sporadic. I was thinking about taking into the dealership but I can't duplicate the problem so I didn't' want to waste everybody's time with a "phantom" problem.

Hmm, my car makes noises when I make sharp lefts. Comes from the passenger side as well. Mine sounds more clunky than grinding though. Might need to look into this more...

I had a similar problem, was able to replicate it when the car was off. When car was jacked up, it stopped grinding. It ended up being a bad tie rod end.
