Why is there a strange noise when turning the steering wheel?

[Kingston]

There is a strange noise when turning the steering wheel because the steering column dust cover lacks lubrication, which causes friction noise. In this case, the owner only needs to apply some grease inside the dust cover, and the noise will disappear. If the turn signal is activated while turning, the sound may come from the rebound clip of the turn signal auto-return mechanism. The owner needs to confirm this situation. If it is indeed the case, then this is a normal occurrence. The steering wheel is a wheel-shaped device used to control the direction of cars, ships, airplanes, etc. The function of the steering wheel is to convert the force applied by the driver to the edge of the steering wheel into torque and then transmit it to the steering shaft. It mainly consists of a frame, foam, and the corresponding mounting clips or screw holes for the driver airbag (DAB).
