Hello, I think my subject line sums it up. When I rotate the steering wheel to the right (for a sharper turn), I hear a noise that almost sounds like a grinding. I recently had my brake pads replaced but am wondering if this is a suspension issue, or what? I haven't tried to see if I hear it when rotating the wheel to the left also. Could you please give me some ideas of what it could be?
