Your axels are cracked. I have been through about 4 sets so far. Mostly from excessive wheel hop/take off or a lot of bumpy roads.

I think he means cv joints are done- at least one is and you replace the entire axle unit with 2 new joints/bearings with new boots on them and a new axle shaft

if you abuse the car doing burnouts or hit a lot of potholes that eats those bearings
Its about the most common part wearout on fwd cars~
1 hour labor to replace

also ck the ball joints and sway bar end links
Have a local shop-brake and suspension shop look at it
NOT a big brand name place with corp office to satisfy about upsells and minimum charges etc,,,over the customers actual needs..get it???

Aftermarket:

$49.89

Add an hour minimum for labor, independant $75.00, dealer $125.00
