My car has started to make a squeeking/grinding noise while turning the wheel. I checked steering fluid and the level is good. The wheel movement is not hindered, the steering seems to be okay. I'm concerned with the noise and what needs attention.
Thank You

I would start by checking the front brake pads. If they are good, check for play in the wheel bearings.

Let me know what you find.
