cannot make left u turn without thumping and bumping front tire noise
What is your question?
as if something were caught in front driver's side tire...then it will thump and hobble as wheel is being turn then when turning sharper as in a full u turn it just won't move.... checked oil leak cover, but it is screwed in...no squeaks, just thumping then stuck and won't move

Turning and driving over bumpy brick driveway
