Reasons for Abnormal Noises When the Car is Turning

[VanJordan]

Cars making abnormal noises when turning are often due to the sound of the turn signal returning to its position or friction between plastic components. Below are the specific reasons: Sound from the turn signal returning to its position: If the turn signal is activated while turning, the noise might be caused by the rebound clip of the turn signal's automatic return mechanism. This situation requires confirmation by the car owner. Friction between plastic components: The steering wheel is usually made of plastic components. If the temperature drops, the plastic can harden, naturally leading to friction noises. If the abnormal noise comes from inside the steering wheel, the issue is most likely caused by the clock spring (spiral cable) inside the steering wheel.
