Ok so when Im driving down the road everything is fine well I need to get an alligment but thats next week. So When going strait its fine and going right its fine but when I turn the wheel left it makes this grinding sound but only when im driving 35mph or more. when Im stopped or going slower there is no problem. Any ideas I havent really seen anything really out of place. Thanks

so when the vehicle isn't in motion you can turn the wheel full left and you don't get any sound?

i'd check all your steering linkage, hubs, ujoints, bearings, etc.

Correct when Im stopped I can turn the wheel left and nothing but while Im driving and I change lanes or the road curves it just make a grinding sound untill I bring the wheel back strait.

Dust shield touching the brake rotor maybe?? Heard that one before and you only hear it when turning.. Pried mine away with a screwdriver and it was fine, just not sure how it happened.

I am having the same problem too. What can cause that problem and what can fix it?

JSwamper

had that exact problem,, took it out, cured the problem

where is the dust shield

It is the piece of tin behind the brake rotor... You can bend it away without taking anything off just by looking at the inside of the wheel. The only thing that you can see is the caliper and shield. If you do not see anything touching where it should not be, I would check the wheel bearing for any roughness or play before getting it aligned

So you think it could be wheel bearings? I will check those out as soon as I get time. Ya I looked under and I didnt see anything around the rotor touching or to close. But will keep you guys posted.
