Some Ford Crown Victoria owners report experiencing a ticking sound from the driver side front wheel when turning, which may be caused by several issues. These owners have noted that misaligned or improperly inflated tires can lead to a rubbing noise during turns. Additionally, worn or damaged CV joints might contribute to the clicking noise from the front wheels. In some cases, the problem could be related to the wheel hub or bearing, particularly if the sound occurs only when turning in a specific direction. To address these concerns, it is advisable for owners to check tire pressure and alignment, inspect CV joints for wear, and have the wheel hub or bearing examined and replaced if necessary. If diagnosing or fixing the issue proves challenging, consulting a mechanic or professional technician is recommended for accurate identification and resolution.
